A lane in Hnativka has been named after “Patriarch Filaret.”
On April 16, 2026, a lane in the village of Hnativka in Kyiv region was named after the late head of the UOC-KP, Filaret Denysenko, OCU cleric Yaroslav Chernenkyi reported on Facebook. He thanked the head and secretary of the village council, as well as the deputies, for their unanimous decision.
