Saint Seraphim of Sarov Church in Anapa

Saint Seraphim of Sarov Church in Anapa, Eastern Orthodox church in Anapa, Russia.

Saint Seraphim of Sarov Church in Anapa is a large brick church on Mayakovskogo Street, built from 2005 in the Pskov-Novgorod style of the 12th to 14th centuries. Its first service was held on Christmas Day, 7 January 2014, and interior painting was still under way in summer 2015.

The current church was begun in December 2005 in the Pskov-Novgorod style of the 12th to 14th centuries, and its first service was held on Christmas Day, 7 January 2014. Its predecessor was a prayer house on Grebenskaya Street, opened after the Soviet authorities closed the Church of Saint Onuphrius the Great in 1964 and the community bought a house with donated funds. That house church was re-consecrated to Saint Seraphim of Sarov on 21 July 1992, after the Onuphrius building was returned to believers in 1991.

The church is named after Seraphim of Sarov, whose cell icon, the "Umilenie" (Tenderness), gave its name to the older Grebenskaya Street church after 2014. At the Mayakovskogo Street site the parish runs a library dedicated to Saints Cyril and Methodius, a Sunday school for children and adults, and the youth group "Krug".

The church stands at 111-V Mayakovskogo Street, near the Yuzhny market. The first service in the new building was held on 7 January 2014, and it has served as the parish's working church since then. Visitors should dress modestly and keep quiet, as services are regularly held.

The church on Grebenskaya Street, consecrated to Saint Seraphim on 21 July 1992, was re-consecrated on 12 March 2014 in honour of the icon of the Mother of God "Tenderness", Seraphim's cell icon. The new Mayakovskogo Street church, begun in December 2005 in the Pskov-Novgorod style of the 12th–14th centuries, held its first service at Christmas 2014.
