Description
Church of the Epiphany in the village Kostino (Ryazan region) was built in 1700. After the Bolsheviks came to power the Church of the Epiphany has been closed and nearly destroyed. Completely destroyed the temple wall paintings, icons, church utensils and bells. The building of the temple was used to install water drive the tank (the tank in the photo is hidden under a wooden shelter).

Today, this once beautiful temple is in dilapidated condition and the cause of pity and compassion. If you do not start urgent restoration, reconstruction of the temple to be exact, that soon we will lose forever the monument and church architecture.

God knows, Christianity has something to be proud of - but what can be proud of atheism? The ruins?
