Zelensky’s Persecution Of Ukrainian Christians

Since December of 2022 when Zelensky put out a new law banning activities of religious groups linked to Russia, the persecution of the Ukrainian Orthodox Church has reached a fever pitch. At the epicenter is the Kyiv Lavra - home to monks of the church for more than a thousand years - where hundreds gather to protest this unlawful oppression. Many others also gather there but only to harass both priests and the faithful as they peacefully protest. This is happening all over the country as the Ukrainian Security Forces make new arrests targeting both clergy and laypeople. Please pray for those who are being oppressed and for the souls of those doing the oppression.
