What? They closed your temple? Don't believe your eyes

Meanwhile, in Kyiv on the same day, the Lavra Church of the Life-Giving Spring was closed and sealed. The temple, by the way, was built in the 1990s entirely by the monastery on the site of an old water pumping station.

In June, the authorities announced that Chernihiv's Transfiguration Cathedral (from which the UOC was expelled in 2023) will now function as a museum. And these are just a couple of recent examples, as they say, ‘off the top of my head’. More and more new photo and video materials of the UOC temples seized by Dumenko’s associates, with the locks hung after the ‘transition’, regularly appear on the web. In our country, churches are not just closed, they are even physically destroyed. It requires a special talent to say after that there are no closed temples in Ukraine and to be proud of this fictitious fact.

Of course, we have already got used to our authorities forming their own ‘church’ reality, which has nothing to do with the truth. And they even have some localised successes in this difficult task.

But history proves that lies and propaganda die immediately when their creators, liars and propagandists (the Soviet God-fighters will not let you lie) leave the scene.

So it will be this time.

On the criminal scheme of the OCU in Chernivtsi

This is clearly a criminal corruption scheme with multiple steps.

The era of lies, robbery and business lifts

A simple guy from a large family in the Carpathians suddenly becomes the owner of the largest shrines in Chernivtsi. Just yesterday, this seemed impossible. Today, it’s a reality.

On Patriarch Bartholomew's support for "war-peace"

On the eve of the third anniversary of Russia's invasion, Patriarch Bartholomew delivered an inspiring speech dedicated to Ukraine. It was filled with lofty rhetoric, but its main point remained unclear.

About the piano, Zelensky and "95 Quarter"

Creators of such "piano" images will go off to fatten their third chin after publishing them on social media, while ordinary Ukrainians will bear the brunt.

Don't give a reason to those seeking one

We urge the people of Bukovyna to protect their churches, but only through prayer. And remember, we are Christians. We are against violence.

"Spring will come – we’ll start planting"?

In 2019, Volodymyr Zelensky ran for office under the loud slogan "Spring will come – we’ll start planting" (there is a play of words in this saying: it is natural to plant something in spring vs. it is natural to put somebody in jail with the arrival of new time and power).
