◾️On February 2 and 3, in Triskini village, Rivne region, the first services were held in the newly built UOC church in honor of the icon of the Mother of God "Joy and Consolation".
The new shrine was built by Orthodox Christians, who were taken away the St. Nicholas Church by OCU raiders.
The UOC parish underwent many difficult trials. The OCU clerics decided to seize the church back in 2023.
The criminals incited hatred against Christians, staged provocations, put pressure on believers at work. They even threatened soldiers from the church parish.
Due to several attempts of storming and documents falsification, OCU raiders managed to take away the shrine.
The UOC parishioners were forced to pray in an adapted room. But the Christians did not give up.
They decided to build a new church. In 6 months, a new beautiful church appeared in Triskiny.
On February 2, the faithful moved from the hut to their new sanctuary in a solemn procession, after which they served the first All-Night Vigil there.
On February 3, on the day of veneration of the icon of the Most Holy Theotokos "Joy and Consolation", the first Liturgy was celebrated in the new church.
