The village of Kosinskoye once belonged to the Moscow patriarchs. In the revenue books of 1628, the patriarchal treasury order mentions the "church of John the Theologian in the patriarchal estate in the village of Kosinskoye," which was taxed at 8 altyn and 2 dengi, as well as a tithe hryvnia. In 1669, in the settlement of Kosinskoye, there was the church of John the Theologian, where priest Ivan Timofeev lived with his children and deacon Ovdokimko Fedotov, as well as 32 peasant households and 3 landless households. The church at that time was wooden. After the abolition of the patriarchate, the village came under the administration of the synodal order.
In 1810, thanks to the efforts of noblewoman Novokshonova and the parishioners, a stone church with a bell tower and fence was built. It had two altars: the main one in honor of the Holy Apostle and Evangelist John the Theologian and a warm side altar in the name of the holy martyrs Adrian and Natalia.
By the end of the 19th century, the church clergy consisted of a priest and a psalmist. In 1889, a church-parish school opened in the village, for which a separate building was constructed. The estate in Kosinskoye belonged to the city head Nikolai Alexeyevich Ganshin, and a description of it from 1910 has been preserved.
During the Soviet era, the church was closed and desecrated, and the bell tower and church fence were destroyed.
