In 1769, local landowner Pavel Ivanovich Dubrovsky, with the blessing of Bishop Pavel of Vladimir and Murom, built a stone church here in honor of the Intercession of the Holy Virgin. The church was dedicated to the Intercession of the Mother of God in honor of the icon of the Intercession of the Holy Virgin, which he acquired in Crimea around 1762.

Until 1826, the church remained a single-altar. In the same year, the refectory was expanded, and a warm chapel was arranged in the name of St. Basil the Great, St. Gregory the Theologian, and St. John Chrysostom. Since then, the exterior of the church has not changed. A canopy has been installed over the main altar. The local icon of the Intercession of the Holy Virgin is venerated in the parish as miraculous. Its cover is silver-gilded, and the cloth and necklace are adorned with pearls; a small reliquary with particles of holy relics is suspended from the icon. It is said that the village got its name from the Omophorion depicted on the icon.

The church is well supplied with utensils and vestments. All church documents are in order: copies of the metrical books since 1812, confession lists since 1825. The clergy consists of a priest and a psalmist. The clergy members have their own houses on church land. The land near the church includes: 2 desyatinas of homestead land, 30 desyatinas of arable land, 3 desyatinas of haymaking land, and 730 sazhen of unusable land. There is a plan and boundary book for this land. The parish includes the village of Omoforovo and the villages of Gnusovo, Babanino, Pavlovka, Pleshki, and Spirino; according to clerical records, there are 586 men and 657 women in these villages.

Since 1878, an elementary public school with a shelter for 10 orphan boys has been operating in the village of Omoforovo, organized with the funds of merchant Mikhail Yakovlevich Makhr. In the village of Babanino, a stone chapel was built with the funds of the same merchant.
