SUMMARY
=======
The Ukrainian Orthodox Church – Kiev Patriarchate (UOC-KP; Ukrainian: Украї́нська Правосла́вна Це́рква – Ки́ївський Патріарха́т (УПЦ-КП), translit. Ukrayínsʹka Pravoslávna Tsérkva – Kýyivsʹkyy Patriarkhát (UPTs-KP)) is one of the three major Orthodox churches in Ukraine, alongside the Ukrainian Church of the Moscow Patriarchate (which is a part of the Russian Orthodox Church), and the Ukrainian Autocephalous Orthodox Church (UAOC).As a jurisdiction, the Kiev Patriarchate is unrecognised by the canonical Eastern Orthodox churches and is regarded as a schismatic grouping by the Moscow Patriarchate. Nevertheless, the Ecumenical Patriarch of Constantinople Bartholomew in early September 2018 indicated that the Church of Constantinople does not recognise the Moscow Patriarchate's claim to ecclesiastical jurisdiction over the region of today's Metropolis of Kiev; the decision by the Ecumenical Patriarchate of 11 October 2018 formally abrogated the legal consequences of the handover of the Kiev metropolis to Moscow effected in 1686, and thus de jure restored its ecclesiastical jurisdiction over Ukraine recognizing the bishops of the Kiev Patriarchate, along with those of the other two major jurisdictions, as canonical bishops of the Ecumenical throne of Constantinople.The St. Volodymyr's Cathedral in Kiev is the patriarchal cathedral of the UOC-KP. The primate of the church is Patriarch Filaret (Denysenko), who was enthroned in 1995. Filaret (Denysenko) was excommunicated by the Russian Orthodox Church in 1997, but the Synod and Sobor of the UOC-KP do not recognize this action.
Following the Synod of the Ecumenical Patriarchate of Constantinople of 9–11 October 2018 Filaret (Denysenko) was canonically reinstated and the decision was made to proceed with the granting of autocephaly to the Church of Ukraine. As a consequence, the Kiev Patriarchate and the Ukrainian Autocephalous Orthodox Church are planning to merge with pro-independence bishops of the Moscow Patriarchate into an independent (autocephalous) Ukrainian Orthodox Church, which is expected to receive a tomos—an ecclesiastical decree on autocephaly by the Holy Synod of the Ecumenical Patriarchate.
