The report notes that the Phanar will organise parishes for the OCU believers within its structure. In particular, there is a parish in London run by Myroslav Pushkaruk.
" each Ukrainian Orthodox parish will preserve its identity, customs, language, calendar, and traditions, while simultaneously being part of the culturally diverse family of the Ecumenical Patriarchate, and in particular, of its local Archdiocese of Thyateira and Great Britain," the Phanar representation in the UK said.
