Khust Eparchy vicar performs monastic tonsure at Lypcha Convent
The new nun was tonsured with the name Xenia.
By the blessing of Metropolitan Mark of Khust and Vynohradiv, the eparchy's vicar, Bishop Mark of Rakhiv, performed a monastic tonsure at the Convent of the Nativity of the Most Holy Theotokos in the village of Lypcha on August 26, 2026, reports the Khust Eparchy.
During her monastic tonsure, the novice Natalia received the angelic habit and the name Xenia.
"May the All-Merciful Lord, through the prayers of the Most Holy Theotokos, strengthen the newly tonsured nun Xenia on her path in monastic life, granting her spiritual strength, humility, patience, and zeal in serving God," the Khust Diocese said in its well-wishes.
As the UOJ reported, three priests of the UOC received monastic tonsure in the Oleksandriia Eparchy.
