On 15 February 2024, hundreds of UOC believers prayed at the closed Church of the "Quick to Hearken" Icon of the Theotokos in Vinnytsia, reports the website of the Vinnytsia Eparchy.
MP Artem Dmytruk said on his TG channel that "werewolves cut the locks and in fact seized the shrine", although the community of the temple declared its faithfulness to the UOC and His Beatitude Metropolitan Onuphry.
During the prayer standing, Archpriest Andriy Balan said that the authorities had no grounds to prevent believers from entering their temple.
"One person, without the knowledge of the community, put a lock on the church door. Because now 100% of parishioners are in favour of staying in the UOC. No one has any thought of going somewhere else," the priest said.
As reported, the community of the Vinnytsia Church of the "Quick to Hearken" Icon of the Theotokos confirmed loyalty to the UOC.
