Tserkva Na Zhylyansʹkiy Upts Mp

It looks as poor as possible. College courtyard temple. Why is he here? Yes, I understand that there used to be a temple here, then it was destroyed and a college was built. This story happened very often in the USSR. But why rebuild it now? It looks ridiculous and repulsive. There should be no religious buildings on the territory of the educational institution. This spoils the entire architectural ensemble and contradicts common sense.

A dual feeling. On the one hand, it is the UOC MP, which is not admirable. Secondly, the church is located on the territory of the circus school, which is very strange and not entirely comfortable. But on the other hand, Father Demetrius is really very nice: he tells everything, he is friendly, very friendly to children, and you can talk to him about worldly topics. The church is small, but cozy enough inside.

Temple in honor of the Jerusalem Icon of the Mother of God of the UOC. This church is the only one in Kiev in honor of this image. It is located on the territory of the Academy of Variety and Circus Arts. There is also a separate entrance from Zhilyanskaya street. Temple Day is October 25th. The church was consecrated in 2009 by Metropolitan Vladimir, by whose decree the priest Dimitry Garchuk was appointed rector of the church. You can talk with Father Dimitri on any biblical and worldly topics. Can tell for any saint. Many copies of the icons were brought by him personally from the pilgrimage tours. The main shrine of the temple is the Kiev list of the Mother of God of Jerusalem, which was written by the famous icon painter Vladislav Goretsky (author of the Chernobyl Spas icon) in Gethsemane in 2010. According to many experts, this is the most accurate copy. In my opinion, it is still noteworthy, first of all for infertile parents, the icon of the Monk Stilian Paflagonsky, the patron saint of children. Through prayers in front of this icon with a particle of the relics of a children's saint, God has blessed 43 couples with childbirth. Pay attention to the wonderful stained glass windows, the composition is called "Deesis" (with Greek prayer).

I saw a person in the priest's clothes parked near the lattice with the sign "No Parking", which is a sidewalk. Nothing personal at all, just a fact. Probably so it should be. Sorry for the truth.
