First, I call on representatives of the Church to meet to discuss the rules of the council and determine the date of its holding,” writes the head of the UOC-KP.

“I carefully read the decisions of the Local Council of the UOC-MP of May 27, 2022 and the decisions of the Holy Synod of the OCU of May 16, 2022. dialogue,” Filaret added.
