On July 5, a 40-kilometer procession began in the Chernivtsi-Bukovina diocese of the UOC from Chernivtsi to the St. John the Theologian Khreshchatyk Monastery, the diocese's Facebook page reported.
Before leaving for the procession, at 6 o'clock in the morning, the faithful with the clergy performed a prayer service near the church of the Intercession of the Most Holy Theotokos.
