UOC faithful hold procession to church feast day in Molnytsia
About 200 UOC pilgrims in Bukovyna took part in a prayer procession ahead of the patronal feast of a church in Molnytsia.
Around 200 faithful from the UOC Chernivtsi Eparchy joined a religious procession to the Church of the Icon of the Mother of God “Joy of All Who Sorrow” in the village of Molnytsia ahead of its patronal feast, the UOC Information Center reports.
The pilgrims set out from the village of Boiany toward Molnytsia, following a route of approximately 15 kilometers (9 miles).
The church is located on the grounds of an orphanage founded by Metropolitan Longin of Bancheny, who established the institution and provided a home for numerous children, many of whom he adopted.
As the UOJ previously reported, more than 1,000 UOC faithful took part in a religious procession to a monastery in Molodiia.
