The Cossacks of the Popovich Cossack Kurin of the ChKV built two Epiphany churches. The first one, made of wood, with a bell tower but without a foundation, was constructed by 1799, when the kurin was in its first settlement near the Red Forest. The first priest was Stefan Tverdomed, who died in 1803, and his wife Elena, born in 1770, is mentioned in the revision tale of 1816. In 1808, during the resettlement of the kurin, the church was dismantled and moved to a new settlement on Ponura, where it began functioning in the summer of 1809. Over time, the church became cramped due to population growth, so in 1833, near it, closer to the river, construction of a new Epiphany church began. It was also wooden, with a bell tower, but already on a brick foundation. The construction was carried out without the use of nails, using joints and wedges. In 1838, along with the right Matveev chapel, the church was put into operation. Since then, both churches stood side by side and functioned. In 1843, priests Lev Alexeev and Stefan Rybal'sky, deacon Ioann Pavlenko, clerk Alexey Zakirevsky, and sextons Grigory Vikritsky and Stefan Kokolyevsky served in them.

In 1855, the construction of the new church was completed with the addition of the left chapel in the name of Saint Great Martyr Panteleimon. The church was consecrated in 1856, spending 9714.3 rubles in silver on construction, collected by the stanichniki and voluntary donations. This church is still active and is one of the few wooden churches in Kuban, a monument of church architecture. The old church was demolished around 1880 due to dilapidation. After that, the Diocese allowed the dismantling of the common fence and watchman’s lodge for both churches and the construction of new ones for the remaining Epiphany church. Since then, the church square has had an almost square shape with sides measuring about 150 meters. Only recently have new buildings and communications appeared on the southern side of the square.

In the new watchman’s lodge on December 7, 1886, priest Paradiyev opened a literacy school, and psalmist Kondratov donated furniture and books for the first 37 students. Inside the church, it is easy to assess its original dimensions: the length, including the bell tower, was about 25 meters, and the height to the cornice was about 4.5 meters. The width of the room was originally limited by the southern and northern walls. After the addition of the chapels, these walls were cut out, supported by cast-iron pillars, which are now in the middle of the room, increasing its width to 24 meters. Priest Vasily Klyuchansky was awarded a purple velvet skufya in 1910, and priest F.I. Dudkin became a protodeacon in 1912. Local Cossack Fedot Lyakh was appointed church elder in 1913.

A memorable event was the visit of Bishop Ioann of Yeisk to the Epiphany church on May 28-29, 1916, during which he held an all-night vigil, a Divine Liturgy, and together with local priest Nikolai Sobol delivered a sermon.

After the establishment of Soviet power in 1920, the Epiphany church was closed and turned into a warehouse. Respected stanich priests Vasily Klyuchansky and Nikolai Sobol were shot. The church was reopened by the German occupiers, and from the autumn of 1942, services resumed and continue to this day.
