The village of Mitino, located by the Upper Utyak River on the road from the steppe to Kurgan, was founded in 1768 by peasant Osip Stepanovich Kozlov, who moved from the village of Nizhne-Utyatskaya. Until 1785, the village belonged to the Kurgan sloboda, from 1786 to 1886 it was part of the Cheremukhovskaya volost, and from 1887 to 1923, it was in the Mitinskaya volost of the Kurgan district. In the mid-19th century, peasants settled in the village, creating two land societies: the old-settler and the Russian, which existed until the mid-1920s and were called the villages of Staro-Mitinskoye and Novo-Mitinskoye. The Ilyinsky fairs were held annually in the village.

Since its founding, the village of Mitino was part of the parish of the Peter and Paul Church of the village of Cheremukhovo, located 25 versts away. In the early 1860s, an independent Mitino parish was formed, which included the villages of Mogilnaya, Otnoga, Anchutina, Utyatskaya, and Patrakova. From 1888, the village of Stanovaya joined the parish, from 1890, the village of Voinkova, and in the early 20th century, the Potapovsky and Voinsky hamlets. The parish existed in this composition until the mid-1930s when it was closed.

The construction of the first church in the village of Mitino began in 1859 with funds from parishioners and donations. The wooden church on a stone foundation with a bell tower was completed and consecrated in 1865. The altar was dedicated to the holy prophet Elijah.

By the beginning of the 20th century, the church had fallen into disrepair, and in 1916, after the construction of a new church, the building was sold to the residents of the village of Lebyazhya in the Kamyshevskaya volost for the establishment of a church.

In 1905, parishioners decided to build a new stone church for 500 people, as the old church had become too small. In 1909, a site was allocated for construction, and in 1910, architect A.I. Koshkin developed the project. The construction was supervised by Kurgan architect A.Z. Basargin and was completed in 1914. In 1914, a new iconostasis, made by A.P. Reshetnikov, was installed.

The consecration of the new church in the name of the holy prophet Elijah took place in 1916. The church functioned until the early 1930s, and in 1934 it was temporarily used for grain storage. In 1937, the church was permanently closed and used as a warehouse, later the building housed a store and a rural office.

In 1999, the Orthodox parish in the village of Mitino reopened. The building was renovated, weekly services began, and since 2003 they have become regular.

In addition to the Orthodox, Old Believers have long lived in the village of Mitino. In the 1840s, illegal Old Believer prayers were held in the house of peasant Gavriil Ivanovich Osipov. In 1903, an Old Believer Pomorian society was organized in the village of Staro-Mitino, which had its own prayer house. In 1932, the chapel was closed and transferred to the Mitino village council for cultural needs.
