Привет, Valeriy. Это очень приятно. (Sorry that's Russian. I don't know any Ukrainian.)

Welcome to Christian Forums. Do not worry about your English. It is fine and if there are any mistakes that could cause misunderstanding hopefully people will ask you to explain what you meant. We're all just trying to support one another. I hope you will find your time here helpful. Maybe you would be interested in the Eastern Orthodox subforum of this website, The Ancient Way. The people there are usually very friendly and helpful to new members.

May the Lord keep you and your family and community safe in this time of great trouble for your country.

Ласкаво просимо на християнські форуми !!

I hope that's correct as though I can sing Liturgy in Ukrainian I cannot speak it.

I hope you enjoy being here with us

Hello. My name is Valeriy. I am an Orthodox Christian from the Kyiv region. I belong to the UOC. This is my first time at an English-language forum. So I apologize for the mistakes in English.
Hi and welcome! Your English is beautiful.
:hi:

Hi and no problem. Even those of us who do speak English make mistakes.

Thank you all for the warm welcome on this forum. Thank you for your kind words and words of support.

Services of the Ukrainian Orthodox Church are conducted mainly in the Church Slavonic language. This has been the case since the time of Volodymyr the Great, who baptized Kyiv and Rus in the 10th century. But language is not so important. The main thing is to be clear. I really like the words of the archimandrite Joachim Parr.

Thanks also for the tips and advice. The first time is not easy to navigate yourself.
