The first church in the village was built in 1743 in honor of the baptism of the Kalmyks who lived in this ancient Russian village. It was wooden and had simple architecture. In 1819, a small white stone temple was erected on the site of the wooden church. The construction of the current temple was completed in 1912-1913, lasting 10 years thanks to the efforts of all the residents. Before the revolution, the church was consecrated in honor of the icon of Our Lady of Kazan and had one chapel. It was closed on November 4, 1930, on the feast day of Our Lady of Kazan.

After the church's closure, many relics were lost. Painted icons were burned, while others were stored in the basement or kept in a warehouse. Some villagers dismantled the icons, some of which were later returned to the church, while others still remain in the homes of residents. A large icon of St. Nicholas the Wonderworker was used as a trapdoor in one of the houses, but it was the first to return to the temple. The main icon of the church, Our Lady of Kazan, was sold to America by one of the villagers. Among the preserved icons is an Athos icon painted by Hieroschemamonk Kirill in 1910. The fate of the large bell of the church remains unknown. After its closure, the church was used as a machine-tractor station. In the 70s and 80s, there were plans to blow it up, but at the request of the residents, it was left and used as a fertilizer storage.

In October 1988, Archbishop Ioann Snychev visited the dilapidated church while passing by the village. The residents petitioned for its restoration, and the bishop blessed them. Restoration work began on October 30, 1988, and on November 4 of the same year, exactly 58 years after its closure, the first service was held in the church. On November 2, 1989, the altar was consecrated, and the church was named the Epiphany Church.
