A new church in the village of Boyanchuk in Bukovina was consecrated in honor of the Nativity of the Blessed Virgin Mary, writes for-ua.com
The rite of consecration was performed by Metropolitan Melety.
“I am glad that on this significant day we can pray together. Today I don’t want to look back and remember what happened. But life compels us to do this in order to appreciate the work that is put into this temple. It is built on tears, on experiences, on suffering. And today we see that the seed that was thrown here almost three years ago has sprouted into such beauty. We believe that God’s grace, which you took care of when you were building this temple, will be in this place for many, many years. Today is such an exciting moment, because we are sanctifying what you brought from your heart, from your soul to God, ”said Vladyka.
After the rite of consecration, Metropolitan Melety with the clergy celebrated the Divine Liturgy in the new church.
