It has information that the temple has a large farm, so the restoration of the Church was entirely secured.

After coming to power of the Bolsheviks temple again closed, and then again revived. The Soviet era brought the Church to ruin. Officially, the robbery was due to the confiscation of the values in the starving. From the magnificent stone buildings with crosses, bells and belfry remained little stone box, more like the "civic" building. In the period of perestroika were first attempts to resurrect the temple, shortly before the building was returned to the religious community. But all efforts gone.

The support and consent from Chernozatonskii Executive Committee was not. In the end, the appointment of the rector Archpriest Roman Water in 1994 moved the business from a dead point. The tireless work of father of the Novel helped start the revival of the Church from the ruins. Within a decade, until his death, he fought for the right St. Nicholas Church to exist.
