GLORY TO THY HOLY ASCENSION, O CHRIST OUR GOD, GLORY TO THEE!
“FOR OUR GOD IS IN HEAVEN AND ON EARTH, AND HE DOETH WHATSOEVER HE PLEASETH!“ ALLELUIA!
And a brief history: This ROCOR Malin, Ukraine parish has been struggling, under much Moscow MP’s engineered persecutions, FOR WHICH PARISH FAMILY AND CHURCH, THE First Founding Priest LITERALLY GAVE HIS LIFE FOR, for a number of years for it to even exist at all, and to keep this property, which the MARTYRIC founding priest (buried in front of the entrance to his church) had to BATTLE with the then, pro-MP/Pro Moscow, corrupt local Malin and in Kiev, Ukrainian civil authorities and with endless machinations from the local MP agents, who physically attacked and damaged it, by night and in the day time, a number of times, and threatened many times the life and family of the priest, and took the matter of the legal ownership of it to the local Ukrainian corrupt, pro-Moscow, then, civil court to try and seize it for their MP-Ukrainian jurisdiction, and who had physically beat the founding priest and who vandalized it -MANY times, as it was being constructed, and who even sent crowds of paid, rough people to demonstrate at it and to physically threaten its priest and its determined parishioners, many times. But the priest and his faithful parishioners stood their ground, and never surrendered to Moscow or its local Ukrainian henchmen agents…and the current ROCOR priest who succeeded the founding priest, continues this battle to this day, so it still exists today, faithful to the founding anti-Communist principals of our Russian Orthodox Church Abroad, and who refuses to bow or submit to the KGB run & enslaved KGB-Captive to this very day, The foul and phony Kremlin subservient, “Moscow Patriarchate”; (founded anti-canonically IN THE DARK OF NIGHT, in 1943 by Joseph Stalin).
Recently, after Putin’s invaders missal bombed it, our church has asked for world-wide monetary help to repair it, which funds have been sent. But, now, also, the local Ukrainian city government, inspired by the now understandably massive ‘anti-Russian’ sentiments of many Ukrainians-due to Putin’s barbaric and vicious unprovoked attack on Ukraine…hate the very word, “Russia” or “Russian”. Hence, the local Ukrainian Malin city government, has visited the church and its priest, and demand that: they now change their jurisdictional membership to the new ‘Ukrainian Orthodox Church’-created recently by EP Pat. Bartholomew of Constantinople, & delete from its name, the word, “Russian”, and serve in modern spoken Ukrainian, not in “Russian” (which the local Ukrainian young city official had to have explained to, had to be corrected in his ignorance; that our ROCOR church uses for divine worship and prayers, age-old traditional Church Slavonic…historically common, even to this day, to ALL! Orthodox Slavs-since Christianity was first preached to the eastern Slavs, by missionaries of Sts. Cyrill and Methodius, & that its worship is not conducted in the modern Russian language, (which spoken Russian language almost all Ukrainians KNOW & UNDERSTAND AND EVEN USE DAILY, VERY WELL, and as the Russian language has been commonly spoken all over Ukraine, while Ukrainian has not been used in every area, and in Odessa, they use a local dialect of a mix of Russian and Ukrainian).etc. and it is simply an anti-Ukrainian Kremlin propaganda SLANDER & LIE, that the Russian language has been, --up till now anyway, ‘forbidden to be taught or used in all Ukrainian schools!’ …which Malin matter, at last report, is still being fought by our ROCOR church-to KEEP THE LEGAL OWNERSHIP AND USE OF OUR MUCH SUFFERING MALIN Protection CHURCH AND FLOCK, and to stay faithful to our ROCOR’s SOLID ORTHODOX CHRISTIAN FOUNDING CANONICAL PRINCIPALS, …regardless of this terrible unjust war and wicked ANTI-CHRISTIAN! barbaric murderous attack on the over 70% ORTHODOX, PEOPLE of Ukraine, by the “Protector of all Orthodox Christians”, Moscow’s KGB power-mad dictator, NAZI-LIKE - Vladimir Vladimirovitch Putin, …who is blessed for all of his terrible deeds, by “Holy Patriarch KYRILL’! etc.
NOW!, because of Putin’s brutal unprovoked attack on Ukraine, NOW!...many Ukrainians AND MANY of THOSE CALLING THEMSELVES, “RUSSIANS” too who are life-time residents of Ukraine, & many of whom are MARRIED to Ukrainian-identified husbands or wives, are hating anything connected to the word, ‘RUSSIAN’, or ‘RUSSIA’….i.e. many of them NOW! are ashamed to think of themselves as Russians! .THANK YOU, VLAD PUTIN, FOR UNITING THE PEOPLES OF Free Independent UKRAINE, and FOR STIRING UP MASSIVE WORLD-WIDE SYMPATHY FOR SUFFERING UKRAINE, and MASSIVE WORLD -WIDE HATRED, FOR…YOU, and YOUR BARBARIC ANTI-CHRISTIAN ..your demonic Pipedream of your attempted revival of the old miserable, perpetually depressed and hopeless non-free slave-state of the USSR, your “RUSSIAN WORLD!” -your debased TWISTED VERSION OF, “RUSSIA”!
May, ALMIGHTY God!
Save Russia and Ukraine and all the world, from YOU, monster, NAZI-FASCIST Hitler and Stalin admirer, bloodthirsty MAD Globalist-Left Vlad Putin, and speedily remove you and your wicked heathen anti-human government and your monsterous military, soon!
The only ones who are ‘threatening Russia’, are YOU and your Kremlin gang, and THOSE who obey your crazy anti-human orders, not any other nation or people: Not Ukraine, nor ‘The West’, nor America, nor NATO, nor the EU, etc. Only YOU! are destroying Russia, not anyone else or any other entity.
Amen! And Amen! Grant this, O Lord!
Otherwise, soon comes world-wide nuclear war….(as others do have nuclear weapons, and so your frequent threats of your using yours, IF ALL DON’T OBEY YOUR ORDERS), only infureates us, “The West’, more, and makes we who have them too, more determined to use them on YOU, in order to save our countries and peoples from you! ..but from which war, what developed nations, or ANY nation, .... will survive?...but for sure- certainly not, the enslaved non-free uncivil barbarous Russian-Federation nation, where most of the common Russian people and of the other ethnicities living there -especially in vast rural Russia, are perpetualy severely impoverished and who have to struggle every day, just to survive and to have food to eat, while the corrupt arrogant upper Oligark Ruling Class, live like kings, ruled by NAZI-dictator Super-RICH-Oligark Putin, a demented proto-type & a forerunner servant of antichrist; crazy power-mad merciless & phony-“Orthodox Christian” Putin.
God grant, that those MANY!...among the moral and righteous Russian people, themselves, will soon wake up, & rise up, and remove Putin! & his Kremlin gang, for their own good and their own survival, and for the world’s too.
OR? God grant that dictator Vladimir Vladimirovich Putin be so stunned and soul-shocked to the very core of his being by The Holy Spirit, so that he finally SEES his own tremendous sins, so that he…FEELS THE SAME GRIEF AND PAIN that he has caused and is causing to many thousands if not millions, of other human beings, so that he REPENTS and CHANGES, and makes amends before he dies!..if only on his death bed.
May Thy will be done, O Lord!
