The Department of Religious Education, Missionary Work and Catechesis of the Lviv Eparchy of the UOC is holding a charitable campaign "The Holy Scripture for Christmas!" According to the press service of the department, those interested can receive the Holy Scripture by mail for free.

"To receive a copy of the Bible, New Testament or children's Bible, you need to write to us privately and mention that you wish to participate in the charitable campaign," the message states.

In the message, you should write: "I want the Holy Scripture for Christmas!" along with your postal address and specify which book you would like.

The eparchy’s press service has published examples of books and notes that the number of copies is limited.

As reported by the UOJ, there is not a single UOC community left in the Lviv region, according to the head of the Regional Military Administration.
