Изге Апостол Андрей Первозванный ғибәҙәтханаһы

Изге Апостол Андрей Первозванный ғибәҙәтханаһы, Orthodox church in Sochi, Russia

The Church of Saint Andrew the First-Called is a wooden Orthodox church on a concrete foundation in the Zarechny microdistrict of Sochi's Central District. It was built with funds from the Kuban Cossacks for the 2000th anniversary of the Nativity of Christ and consecrated after its foundation stone was laid on 13 December 1999. A tented bell tower was added in 2006, and a separate church dedicated to Blessed Matrona stands beside the main building.

The church was founded on 13 December 1999, built with funds from the Kuban Cossacks for the 2000th anniversary of the Nativity of Christ. It is a wooden structure on a concrete foundation; its hipped bell tower was completed in 2006. A separate church dedicated to Blessed Matrona was later built beside it.

The church was founded with funds from the Kuban Cossacks for the 2000th anniversary of the Nativity of Christ. Beside the main church stands a second church dedicated to Blessed Matrona, and a Sunday school operates at the parish. In 2007 the son of Yuri Shatunov, former singer of the pop group Laskovy May, was baptised here as Dionisy, with Andrei Razin as godfather.

The church stands at ulitsa Makarenko 37 in the Zarechny microdistrict of Sochi's Central district, inland from the coast rather than on the seafront. A second church dedicated to Blessed Matrona stands beside the main wooden building, and a Sunday school operates on the grounds. Visitors should dress modestly, as it is an active Orthodox parish.

In 2007 the son of Yuri Shatunov, former singer of the pop group Laskovy May, was baptised here and given the name Dionisy; his godfather was Andrei Razin, a former colleague in the same group. In 2009 the theologian protodeacon Andrei Kuraev visited for the church's tenth anniversary.
