In the village of Kishleyevo, Sobinsky District, work continues on the construction of a new wooden church on the site of the demolished Assumption Church by the Bolsheviks. Only the foundation and floor of the previous temple have survived, which were cleared in the summer of 2009. At this site, the Bishop blessed the establishment of a wooden church, which was donated by residents of Moscow. This is the chapel of Saint Hieromartyr Vladimir, Metropolitan of Kiev and Galicia, which was previously located in the Moscow district of Sviblovo. Built in 1997, it was dismantled due to the construction of a shopping center and transferred to the parish of Kishleyevo. A new stone church has been erected on the site of the wooden chapel in Sviblovo at the request of local parishioners. Despite the hot summer of 2010, the parish managed to complete the main construction work. Local teenagers actively help on weekends, arriving on mopeds and bicycles. Ahead lies finishing work and landscaping.
The village of Kishleyevo belonged to the boyars Romanov in the second half of the 16th century and the first half of the 17th century, and around 1656 was transferred to the Moscow New Savior Monastery, which owned it until 1764. The stone church in honor of the Assumption of the Most Holy Theotokos was built in 1805 on the site of the previous wooden one. The church had three altars: the main one in honor of the Assumption of the Most Holy Theotokos and two in the warm chapels, in honor of the Nativity of the Most Holy Theotokos and Saint Nicholas the Wonderworker. There was also a church-parish school building.
