Brief

Holy Intercession Church, located in Bezlyudivka village, is a spiritual center and a significant architectural attraction.
This work participates in "Ukrainian brands in global trends" contest.People often come to our village to relax on the banks of our lakes, distract from busy city life. They often ask someone in local buses, how they could get to our village and the response is often the same: “You will see a big church”. Our urban-type settlement with the strange name Bezlyudivka is located near famous for tourists of Kharkiv airport. The village is known for three lakes, one of which is unsuitable for swimming and recreation, and two lakes are very popular among locals and tourists. On their way to lakes, people often see a big church of incredible beauty with golden domes, which is even on an emblem of the village. This is Holy Intercession Church, which this year on October 14 will celebrate 160 years since its founding.Each cathedral is built in honor of the Lord, the Virgin, the Angels. And this one is devoted to Intercession of the Blessed Virgin. This holiday is very popular in our village and people always careful prepare for it: clean their homes and yards, cook some tasty dishes, traditional for this stage, invite relatives and friends. So what do we know about this unique cathedral? Its history and modern life is fully researched in the book "Holy Intercession Church in the village of Bezlyudivka: the history of the church, the modern life of the community " by Karina Yakovenko. I’m very happy and lucky to read this publication as there are interesting facts from archive documents and testimonies collected. The name of the village "Bezlyudivka" is mentioned in the archives documents as early as 1660 together with the Holy Intercession Church as the first cathedral of our village. A wooden temple was built in 1741, but unfortunately, it didn’t preserve to our times. The second church was built in 1741, but the stone church was created in 1861 and consecrated on October 14 - the feast of the Intercession of the Blessed Virgin.So this year, our community is celebrating 160 years since the foundation of the stone building. Thus, it is the third temple in chronology. I am very pleased that in ours village is such a center of spirituality. Most of my friends frequent Sunday school there. In the book, I found photos dated to the 60's and 90's years of the last century. And these photos impressed me because I did not see the temple in this form, I did not know how it was restored after 2007. In 2012, construction of a new Sunday School building began. We should honor the history of our homeland, even a small village and town as it’s a part of Ukrainian history and heritage. We always mention our native villages or towns with love.
