'''Lunarism''', also known as the '''Lunarist Church''', is a {{wp|monotheistic}} {{wp|religion}} that has its origins in Volkian paganism. Its followers believe that [[Yelena]] is the creator and protector of the [[lupine]] species. It is the largest of the lupine religions, with overroughly 75142 million followers, known as "Lunarists." The vast majority of Lunarists live in [[Volkia]], which is also considered to be the holy land of Lunarism. Lunarism teaches that Yelena is all knowing, merciful, and unique and guides lupines through {{wp|prophets}}, {{wp|scriptures}}, and signs. The primary scripture are the [[Knigi Luny]], which contain both the word of Yelena and teachings from [[Miroslav]], the first messenger of Yelena.
 
==History==
Line 50:
Individual regions or major cities are served by eparchies, which are overseen by a bishop. Larger eparchies are overseen by several bishops. As of 2020, there are 572 Lunarist eparchies worldwide; with about half lying within Volkia. The bishops of a particular country are members of a national or regional episcopal conference.
 
Eparchies are then divided into parishes, each with one or more priests, deacons, or lay ministers. The parishes are responsible for the day to day celebration of Lunarist beliefs and pastoral care of the laity. As of 2020 there are 216128,539 parishes worldwide.
