2.1. 1995 — the building beginning.

Conversation on building of a house of worship has arisen in 1994 when gathered in school №4. All would like, that there was a constant place where it is possible to gather without fear to be expelled.

Same year it was possible to us, thanks to the help of Aram to Oganisjan, to rent a plot of land behind police building. Then have touched some variants, dealing with a question on what will be the house. One sister from Tver, having gone to America, has told that there have promised a prefabricated house. There were the obstacles connected with a great sum of money which will be necessary for paying at customs. The second variant - to construct under the project under construction then V.Volochok church building- has been rejected too. In the spring of 1995 year the project has been ordered in Udomlya Open Company “SZES”.

So, building has begun with a territory protection summer of 1995. The platform for building settled down on city suburb. On it there was a lot of a building dust, concrete pieces. The lay-out has been first of all made, the foundation ditch is dug, the marking is made. Building have begun (and further have continued) own forces, with attraction of experts as required. Just by this moment in the middle of August there has arrived group of Americans. They have helped us to make a timbering under a pillow, reinforcing and pouring by concrete. After that on the prepared pillow have started to put concrete blocks, continuing, thus, a base construction.
