Lileva Mennonite Church (Rivnens’ka oblast’, Ukraine)
Lileva Mennonite Church, Ostrog district in the province of Volhynia, is listed by Heinrich Dirks, with Johann Janz as leading minister, Johann Nachtigall as co-minister, and Johann Dekkert as deacon. No particulars are given about membership, etc. Peter M. Friesen also lists the congregation without any additional information. Both sources state that this congregation was a branch of the Alexanderwohl Mennonite Church of Russia. This fact indicates that these two congregations had a common background.
