Ivano-Frankivsk Regional Council grants UGCC convent over 2 hectares of land
Ivano-Frankivsk regional lawmakers have granted a UGCC convent permanent use of a 2.13-hectare plot of land.
The Ivano-Frankivsk Regional Council has granted a 2.13-hectare plot of land in the village of Mykulychyn, Nadvirna district, to a religious organization of the Ukrainian Greek Catholic Church (UGCC) Sisters Servants for permanent use, local news outlet Galka reports, citing a decision adopted at a council session.
The property is located at 92 Hrushevskoho Street. Officials allocated the land for the construction and maintenance of buildings belonging to an educational and monastic complex. The recipient is the Sisters Servants of Mary Immaculate of the Ukrainian Greek Catholic Church, Province of the Compassion of the Mother of God.
Following the council's decision, the Greek Catholic organization must register its permanent land-use rights in the State Register of Property Rights to Real Estate.
As the UOJ previously reported, Ukraine's Ministry of Culture granted Greek Catholics a 49-year right to use a UNESCO-listed historic church in Zhovkva.
