In the mid-18th century, according to popular legend, in 1750, a miracle occurred in the village of Georgievskoe: a shepherd, while driving his flock, discovered the Tikhvin Icon of the Mother of God on a wild apple tree. The icon was transferred to the local church, and soon people noticed that after praying before it and washing with water from the spring, illnesses receded. During cholera epidemics, parishioners organized processions with this icon, and there were no deaths. The fame of the miraculous icon quickly spread.

It was soon decided to build a new wooden church, the main focus of which would be the Tikhvin Icon of the Mother of God. The church was constructed by landowner Anton Ivanovich Alamikhin in 1761. It consisted of two altars: the main, cold one was dedicated to the Tikhvin icon, and the second, to Saint George the Victorious. The bell tower had a round shape, as noted in the archives of the Nizhny Novgorod region.

Until the 18th century, the parish of the village of Georgievskoe included the settlements of Sergeyevo, Beryozino Pole, and Beresenikha.

By 1853, the church had fallen into disrepair, and it was renovated: it was placed on a stone foundation, the roof was covered with iron, and the walls were plastered and painted. Heating was provided by stoves.

The church was small: its length was 8 fathoms, width 6 fathoms. The height of the cold altar was 4 fathoms, and the warm one was 5 arshins. In winter, the church was cramped, as the cold room was closed with glass doors.

Despite having church utensils, the church remained poor, as its maintenance was funded by voluntary donations from the peasants.

In 1938, the church and the graves of the priests were destroyed, and the Tikhvin Icon of the Mother of God was lost. However, the villagers dreamed of restoring the church and made their dream come true.

A former resident of the village, Alexander Viktorovich Lisin, dreamed of his deceased mother, who asked him to build a church. He invested his savings in the construction of a prayer house, which began in 2006, with the support of his fellow villagers. For example, Alexander Vasilyevich Volkov donated the dome, Evgeny Leonidovich Kozlov provided materials for the roof, and Sergey Viktorovich Lisin donated a bell tower with five bells in 2009. The residents of Epifanovo and Sergeyevo, as well as the local council administration, provided significant assistance.

Today, the wooden building of the prayer house in the name of the Tikhvin Icon of the Mother of God is completed, and the first service took place on December 9, 2008.
