Archbishop of Lviv (3 May 2001) Metropolitan Macarius of Lviv (Ukrainian: Макарій, Митрополит Львівський, romanized: Makarii, Mytropolyt Lvivskyi, secular name: Mykola Ivanovych Maletych, Ukrainian: Микола Іванович Малетич; born on 1 October 1944) is a bishop of the Orthodox Church of Ukraine (OCU) and a permanent member of the Standing Holy Synod of the OCU, holding the title of Metropolitan of Lviv.
Prior to the Unification Council in December 2018, he was the Primate of the Ukrainian Autocephalous Orthodox Church (UAOC), a jurisdiction that did not have recognition on the part of other Eastern Orthodox churches; he was restored to full ecclesiastical communion with the Patriarchate of Constantinople by the decision of the Holy Synod of the Ecumenical Patriarchate of Constantinople in October 2018.
In 1973 and then again in 1974, he tried and failed to enroll at the Odesa Theological Seminary of the Russian Orthodox Church (ROC).
On 4 June 2015, he was elected as Metropolitan and the new Primate of the Ukrainian Autocephalous Orthodox Church.
At the Unification Council in Kyiv on 15 December 2018, Metropolitan Macarius, along with the bishops, priests, and laity of the UAOC, joined the OCU, a new ecclesiastical body that was in January 2019 granted autocephaly by the Ecumenical Patriarchate of Constantinople.
