«Get Sodomites the hell out!» A scandal with appointment of «Zhitomir KP bishop» (VIDEO)

Out of its own sources the UOJ got to know details of a scandalous appointment of «bishop of Zhitomir and Ovruch» of the Kiev Patriarchate Paisiy Kukharchuk. The appointment ended up with a row during the worship service led by Filaret (Denisenko) in St. Vladimir Cathedral.

On the video, starting from 10.30, one can hear «get Sodomites away from Kiev Patriarchate!». Nevertheless the appointment did take place.

According to the UOJ source, Iziaslav, who used to hold office of the head of Zhitomir UOC-KP eparchy, fell out of favor with the administration and was made to retire.

The newly baked «bishop» has not assumed his office yet.
