The Intercession Church in the village of Kokino, Trubchevsky district of the Oryol province, was built in 1761 with funds from the landowner A.S. Bezobrazov. The church had three altars: the main one in honor of the Intercession of the Holy Virgin, the second in honor of Alexius, Metropolitan of Moscow, and the third in honor of the holy monks Anthony and Theodosius of the Caves. The church was made of stone and was cold. In 1814, it was expanded, the altars were relocated, and they were covered with iron. In 1871, the brick floors were replaced with wooden ones. In 1881, the landowner N.P. Khalaev built a stone fence and a guardhouse around the church. The church housed a revered icon of the Mother of God, likely painted in the mid-18th century. In 1801, a silver cover was made for it with funds from Varvara Bezobrazova, born Tyutcheva, the poet's aunt. Her son Alexander Bezobrazov participated in the 1812 war, commanding two guns at the Battle of Borodino, for which he was awarded the Order of Anna III class. Killed in battle, he was reburied by his mother in a crypt under the Intercession Church.

For a long time, the church remained the center of the village, where people came in joy and sorrow. The parish was large but not wealthy. The church stood on a hill between two estates, surrounded by fir trees and a garden. Until the 1920s, the church remained in this condition. By 1925, it was closed and looted. Not only cult items were thrown out, but also books and notebooks. The priest's house was also looted. Some icons were preserved by the residents of Kokino, passed down through generations. These events were part of the new government's policy, which used the 1918 law on the separation of church and state for its own needs. In 1925, a agricultural school was established on the basis of the former Martynov estate in Kokino, and later a technical school. In 1930, the church fence and bell tower were dismantled for the construction of a dormitory. The church building was converted into a club, where meetings and concerts were held.

During the war, the church building was not heavily damaged, but the club did not resume operations. The premises were used as workshops for German prisoners of war. In the early 1950s, with the expansion of the technical school, the church building was in the way of new construction and was demolished. A new club building was erected in its place, and a monument to Lenin was installed opposite. The staff of the Intercession Church before the revolution included priest Andrei Pokrovsky, deacon Fyodor Panin, sexton Pyotr Kiriev, and elder Grigory Pogonyshchev. Their fates turned out differently: Panin became the director of a school, Pokrovsky was arrested and shot in 1938, but was rehabilitated in 1989.

In May 2001, an Orthodox community was established in the Sadowy settlement. The believers were given the building of former barns, which eventually turned into a cozy church. A church house is currently being arranged.
