Pravoslavna Volyn’

Pravoslavna Volyn’ [«Православна Волинь»; Orthodox Volhynia]. An official publication of the Volhynian Orthodox eparchial council, edited by Vasyl Bidnov. The decision to publish this Ukrainian-language successor to Volynskie eparkhial’nye vedomosti (see Eparkhial’nye vedomosti) was made at a church council in Pochaiv in October 1921. It started to appear in 1922 in Kremianets, but soon ran into trouble for supporting the Ukrainianization of the church. Bidnov was transferred out of Kremianets, and publication ceased soon after.
