A Council without Conciliarity or Rebellion in Odessa

Yaroslav CHMELNYTSKYI, UOC-KP priest
(Notes of a witness to a local council meeting of the UOC)
It was at a meeting of Ukrainian Orthodox Church delegates in Kyiv on 17 January, which was officially presented as a forward to the Local Council of the Russian Orthodox Church, that I saw for myself that such things happen. The main event of the forthcoming nation wide council in Moscow is the election of a new patriarch. The council’s agenda should also include the status of the UOC, whose bishops asked for autocephaly in 1991, and many other things. Indeed, Ukrainian delegates had much to talk about.
