His Holiness Patriarch of Kyiv and All Rus-Ukraine Filaret met with employees of the Department of Culture of the Kyiv City State Administration, headed by Director Diana Popova.
It is reported by the press center of Kyiv Patriarchate.
His Holiness Bishop rewarded the guests “for services to the Ukrainian Orthodox Church, significant contribution for active participation in the dialogue of state-church relations, for strengthening the authority and development of the Local Church” with the Order of the Holy Great Martyr Barbara and the Order of the Holy Archangel Michael and the Patriarch’s letters.
“Thanks to the Kyiv Patriarchate, which has become great, we have received Tomos. Such a Church is not ashamed to give a document on autocephaly. So, in this process you played a big role, because you supported the Kyiv Patriarchate in the heart of Ukraine — Kyiv. The capital always sets the tone. Capital is example to all Ukraine. What is like Church in the capital, the others in the country follow. This is a symbol of gratitude for your work. The church is praying that the Lord will give you more, eternal blessed life, because it is a great reward from God. Therefore, I congratulate you so that you will continue to work zealously for the benefit of our Church in Kyiv,” noted Patriarch Filaret.
