General information about Saint Paraskeva Church (Vepryk)

The wooden church of Saint Paraskeva in the village of Vepryk in the Fastiv region was founded in 1856.

The parish priest in this church in 1920-1922 was the prominent Ukrainian composer Kyrylo Stetsenko, who was invited by local residents to lead the local parish after he turned to the church at the end of his life.

During Soviet times, the church of Saint Paraskeva was destroyed. In the early 1990s, it was restored on the former foundation in its original form according to the surviving drawings.

Дерев'яна церква Святої Параскеви у селі Веприк на Фастівщині заснована в 1856 році.

Парафіяльним священиком у цьому храмі в 1920-1922 роках служив видатний український композитор Кирило Стеценко, якого місцеві жителі запросили очолити місцеву парафію після того, як він наприкінці життя звернувся до церкви.

За радянських часів церкву Святої Параскеви було знищено. На початку 1990-х років її відновили на колишньому фундаменті в первісному вигляді за кресленнями, що збереглися.
