🇰🇪 Kenyan Diocese takes priests to court on charges of violating constitutional rights to religion and assembly

— "More than two dozen Western Kenyan Orthodox priests who chose to join the Alexandrian Exarchate of the Russian Orthodox Church were summoned to court on charges of serving in churches of the Patriarchate of Alexandria and thereby violating constitutional rights to freedom of religion and assembly.

In an article yesterday, OrthoChristian quoted Metropolitan Leonid of Klin, the Russian Patriarchal Exarch for Africa, stating that 28 priests were summoned to court. However, in documents from the Kakamega High Court then made available to OrthoChristian, 26 priests are named."

🇺🇦 Ukrainian Church denounces bills aimed at banning it, schismatics support the bills

— "The new bills introduced into the Ukrainian Parliament aimed at shutting down the canonical Ukrainian Orthodox Church and confiscating its territory are based on lies, and are simply a continuation of the Poroshenko-era policies that helped bring about the terrible times that Ukraine is now experiencing, the Ukrainian Church says.

On the other hand, prominent voices within the schismatic “Orthodox Church of Ukraine” have unsurprisingly expressed support for two separate bills that were submitted and registered by the Verkhovna Rada earlier this month, which take aim at the Ukrainian Church because of its spiritual ties to the Moscow Patriarchate, which is centered in a country that Ukrainian law recognizes as carrying out military aggression against Ukraine."

Whether you're Russian or Ukrainian, or from another land afar, I kindly ask that you do not use this war as a justification for your hatred and malice. We're brothers and sisters in Christ, remember that. Don't let this conflict become a barricade to basic decency and love for your fellow Christian — else you're merely partaking in the work of the devil.

I can comprehend that feelings are high right now, and it's understandable — for some more than others. But let us, as the late Fr. Seraphim Rose wisely said, "not criticise or judge other people and regard everyone else as an angel and justify their mistakes and weaknesses". Rather than rush online to engage in virtual fist-fights, let us spend more time praying and asking God for forgiveness.

May the Lord have mercy on us all!

🇷🇺🇺🇦 The Russian Orthodox Church is concerned about the possible adoption of laws prohibiting the UOC

— "The bills aimed at the actual liquidation of the canonical Ukrainian Orthodox Church by banning its activities on the territory of Ukraine, recently submitted to the Verkhovna Rada of Ukraine (No. 7204 and No. 7213), if adopted, will undoubtedly lead to an aggravation of the social crisis, provoke a new round of civil confrontation and will exacerbate the split previously provoked by the anti-canonical actions of the Phanar, Vladimir Legoyda, chairman of the Synodal Department for Church Relations with Society and the Media of the Moscow Patriarchate, wrote on his Telegram channel."

🇺🇦 Met. Arseniy: We must go through the war as Christians, taking up a cross

— "During the war, people behave differently: some pray and help their neighbours, and some get angry and condemn, said the abbot of the Sviatogorsk Lavra.

On March 27, 2022, Metropolitan Arseniy of Sviatogorsk, the abbot of the Holy Dormition Sviatogorsk Lavra, in his sermon on the Holy Cross Week, said how important it is to turn to God with all your heart to get through the war.

"We must experience the present time as Christians, take up the cross and follow Christ. We must grab hold of His Robe and not let go because without God, the man brings himself to a terrible condition. Without God, we become cruel and close the door to eternal life for ourselves," said Metropolitan Arseniy."
