Russian priest refuses to pray for Russian victory in Ukraine

This is the story of a Russian Orthodox priest who refused to pray for victory for the Russian Army n Ukraine. Instead he has been praying for peace. 

A brave man.

Patriarch Krill has removed him from his job. The patriarch has sided with Putin instead of with one of his own priests.

Father Aleksiy Uminsky is a well known priest in Moscow. He officiated at the funeral last year of Mikhail Gorbachov.

Do we ever appreciate the freedom we have and what it means to live in a liberal free society.

Who would have the bravery to do what this man has done? What’s his future now?
