Embassy of God to Stay at Kyiv Sports Complex
The School of Higher Sporting Arts on Kyiv’s Tychynyi Street will soon be repaired. During repair, the Embassy of God religious organization, which rents this site, will stop holding services there. However, it plans to resume its work right after work is completed. prokiev.com.ua posted the news on 13 October 2006.
For several years, the sports authorities in Kyiv have tried to return the sports building to the athletes. A year ago, Rostyslav Karandeiev, head of the Main Department of Sports of the Kyiv City Administration (KCA), reported that the normal functioning of the track-and-field riding house as an object of communal property is not possible. “The thing is that the renters do not return the object to the city’s communal property, despite the decision of 14 courts in favor of the KCA. The problem is that the building is rented by the Embassy of God and it also houses the office of National Deputy Leonid Chernovetskyi [now Kyiv mayor].” This is why major repairs could not be conducted earlier.
After Chernovetskyi was elected mayor of Kyiv, he promised that all riding schools will be used according to their intended use.
According to kiev.proua.com, at least two religious organizations, the Embassy of God (Pastor Sunday Adelaja) and Victory (Pastor Henry Madava), use riding halls in Kyiv as the main place for their services.
