The justice authorities of Ukraine in Kyiv have registered the first regional office of the public union "Miriane", according to the organization's telegram channel.
The Kyiv City Separate Subdivision was registered on June 22, 2021. According to the organization, by the end of the year it will have its representations in all regional centers of the country.
“We are looking for active Orthodox Christians in all corners of Ukraine, people who are ready to learn, develop and create. Defend your rights, act. Actively participate in the service of God and the Ukrainian Orthodox Church,” the message says.
The “Miriane” claim that thanks to their movement they will embrace the whole country, and, united, they will be able to defend their faith and their Church. “We are in the majority. And we will ensure that our voice be heard,” the organization believes.
Earlier, the UOJ wrote that the "Miriane" sent an open letter to the Adviser to the Head of the President's Office.
