Church that survived two world wars is destroyed by shelling in southern Ukraine

[Sadauskas]

A church in the southern Ukrainian Mykolaiv region, which survived World War I and World War II, has been "completely destroyed" by Russian shelling, according to Ukrainian public broadcaster Suspilne.

The Church of the Immaculate Conception of the Blessed Virgin Mary, located about 43 kilometers (around 27 miles) east of the city of Mykolaiv, "was mutilated by shelling, only a few walls survived," and "there is no roof," according to Suspilne.

"There is a small room where our liturgical things have been preserved. In particular, a chalice for the 'blood of the Lord,'" the church's priest, Father Oleksandr, is quoted as saying.

Before the church caught fire, one of the parishioners hid the icons and images that were in the central part.

"We saved most of the images, but the main part was destroyed by the rain. Many (pieces) were destroyed by field mice," Father Oleksandr said.

The oldest icons of the Mother of God could not be saved. They were of great value to the parishioners, Suspilne reports.

    "They were handed over by people who saved these icons from being destroyed by the communist authorities. That's why they had such a value. These people hid the icons in their houses and then, when the church was restored, they brought them here. Unfortunately, they could not be saved. They were very covered, the rains soaked them. They are destroyed," Father Oleksandr said.

The damage to the temple is so significant that it is impossible to restore, Father Oleksandr said.
