Description
Summary:This article analyzes previous scientific works by scholars who have researched the problem of religious service attendance by people with disabilities. It also employs contemporary scientific methods, including experience generalization, systematization, and comparative-historical analysis. The scientific novelty lies in exploring aspects of the crisis in religious services for people with disabilities that have emerged due to the ongoing war in Ukraine. A comprehensive analysis of the issue, including its key aspects, will help to develop a more complete understanding of the topic. This study holds practical significance, as it opens up the potential for developing methodological recommendations based on the analysis for creating inclusive spaces in sacred buildings and for altering church service approaches to better accommodate people with various forms of disability.
