Head of Khmelnytskyi Eparchy visits persecuted priest's family in Mytyntsi
Metropolitan Victor of Khmelnytskyi supported the large family of the UOC priest, who are being evicted from their home.
On September 22, 2024, Metropolitan Victor of Khmelnytskyi and Starokostiantyniv visited the family of Archpriest Oleh Tsaruk in the village of Mytyntsi, Krasyliv community. The priest's family, which includes four minor children, has been living without electricity and water for more than two weeks due to a conflict with supporters of the OCU, who are attempting to evict them.
That day, the youngest daughter, Maria, turned one year old, and the metropolitan came to congratulate her on her first birthday. He also brought gifts for all the children and handed over financial aid, collected by believers, to the parents – Father Oleh and his wife Olha.
"Thank you to everyone who responded and provided moral, financial, and all-around support to the large family of Archpriest Oleh Tsaruk," said the metropolitan.
As previously reported by the UOJ, hostile villagers chained and locked the well in the yard of Father Oleh Tsaruk's home, where he lives with his wife and four minor children, leaving a sign that read "CHLOR" on it.
