hrough Holy Communion and other holy Mysteries (Sacraments) (1 Cor. 11:22).
The temple is also called a church, i. e. , the term which is applied to the society of believers in Jesus Christ (1 Cor. 14:23; 1 Tim. 3:15; Acts 56:11). In the Typicon «church» most frequently refers to what is generally called the nave – the place designated for the faithful as opposed to the place set apart for catechumens. Each Orthodox temple is a temple of God, the house of the Lord(Luke 19:45-46).
Electrostal has three churhes:
Father John of Kronschtadt church
St. Andrei Rublyov church St. Panteleimon church
Now new great church is building in Chernyshevsky Street
My work is devoted to the main church of our town consecrated in honour of St. Andrei Rublyov church in Nikolayev Street.
It was constructed in 1991-1992 by architect V. A. Drozdova. It is located in Moscow Eparchy, 60 km to the north-east of Moscow, in Electrostal.
The rector of the church is the priest Sergius Poddubnyi
Each temple is given its own name: e. g. one is called Nativity of Christ, another Holy Dormition, a third St. Peter and Paul, still another All Saints, and so forth. Temples are so named because they are erected and consecrated to God in honour of one or another event in the history of the Faith, or in honour of a Saint of God chosen to be the special intercessor before the Lord on behalf of the community – the parish.
The main church of Elektrostal is consecrated in honour of St. Andrei Rublev,
Another church is consecrated in honour of Farther John of Kronschtadt
One part, or the largest portion of a given temple, is known as the main temple. A second «chapel» (with an Altar) is known as the paraecclesia.
