On the evening of 31 October 2026, the eve of the Twenty-Second Sunday after Pentecost, Metropolitan Mark of Korsun and Western Europe, Patriarchal Exarch of Western Europe, served the evening office at Holy Trinity Cathedral.

Concelebrating with him were Priest Maxim Politov, secretary of the Korsun Diocesan Administration, and the cathedral clergy.

After the Polyeleos, the Patriarchal Exarch read the Gospel appointed for the service, the passage from the Gospel of St John that tells of the restoration of the Apostle Peter to his apostolic ministry and of his call to follow Christ. He then anointed the clergy with blessed oil and read the festal canon.
