OCU to implore the Holy Theotokos for intercession jointly with Patriarch Bartholomew when Hagia Sophia is converted into a mosque

This was reported by the official website of the OCU.

The Orthodox faithful will unite in prayer for the mercy of God and the intercession of the Holy Theotokos at a time when the Ecumenical Patriarchate, like the rest of the world, is facing challenges due to the conversion of the Cathedral of St. Sophia of Constantinople into a mosque.

As a gesture of prayer solidarity with the Ecumenical Patriarchate, His Beatitude Metropolitan Epifaniy of Kyiv and All Ukraine gave his blessing that the churches of the Orthodox Church of Ukraine hold a service (prayer or evening) on July 24, 2020, with the reading of the Akathist to the Holy Theotokos.
