The consecration of the bell was soon after the Hierarchical Divine Liturgy with the ordination of Bishop Mykhaylo (Bubniy). All the priests that were present at the ordination of Bishop Mykhaylo also attended the consecration of the bell.

"We have got the remembrance that will stay here forever, and the bell will wake up all on the left bank of our mighty Dnieper", - said the Head of the Church.

According to the comments of the Department of Information, Bishop Josyf (Milian), the largest bell of Patriarchal Cathedral will have the name "Archangel Michael".

"Archangel Michael" weighs nearly four tons. It was made in the Royal Dutch belfry for sponsorship of benefactors from around the world.
