"Priest" V. Lilo who led the seizure of St. Michael's Church in Boyarka returned the day before from Athos, where he visited Xenophontos and Pantokratoros monasteries.

OCU "priest" Vasyl Lilo, who on May 6, 2023, led the seizure of the UOC St. Michael's Church in Boyarka, had been on Athos a few days earlier as part of the OCU delegation.

Representatives of Dumenko's structure visited the Xenophontos and Pantokratoros monasteries, held "services" there and talked to the brethren. In particular, the OCU showed a conversation with the hegumen of the Xenophontos Monastery, Archimandrite Alexis. In several photos, the abbot and Vasyl Lilo are side by side.

As earlier reported, an OCU delegation visited two monasteries on Mount Athos.
