    Decolonizing The Global Ukrainian Church

    Saying that this Church is my home is often considered contentious, mostly because I am not an ethnic Ukrainian. This contention, I find, is equally raised by some within the church. However they want to read my body, I am in this church.

    Seit der Unabhängigkeit der Ukraine galten die Gläubigen der „nicht kanonischen“ orthodoxen Kirchen als Christen zweiter Klasse und waren von der Weltorthodoxie getrennt. Die Verleihung der Autokephalie an die Orthodoxe Kirche der Ukraine hat diesen jahrzehntelangen Missstand beendet. Millionen ukrainischer Gläubiger sind nun wieder Teil der globalen Orthodoxie, zudem hat die Autokephalie die Wahlmöglichkeiten der Kirchgemeinden gestärkt.

    Israeli and Ukrainian media report fake anti-Semitic ‘pogrom’ in Ukraine

    On 11 January 2020, the Israeli publication Yeshiva World News posted a supposed news report under the shocking title “POGROM IN UMAN OVER SHABBOS: Ukrainian Thugs Attack Jews, 4 Evacuated To Hospitals”. There was no pogrom, yet within hours ‘the story’ had been repeated as though it were established fact by other Israeli, Ukrainian and Russian media. Very few have posted updated texts, explaining that the information had proven false, and some of those who reported the police statement debunking the claims still kept the same catchy – and misleading – titles.

    The Ecclesiastical Motherhood of the Orthodox Church in Ukraine

    One of the most critical questions facing contemporary Orthodox ecclesiology is the autocephaly of the Orthodox Church in Ukraine and the schism within Orthodoxy.
