Description of the attraction
The House of Prayer of Evangelical Christians-Baptists was built in the city of Kobrin in the period 1989-1993 with the help and donations of believers. According to eyewitnesses, the construction was carried out on pure enthusiasm. When they began to build the meetinghouse, they did not yet know how it would turn out, because the final project was not yet ready. As a result, several mistakes were made, which later had to be corrected.
This is one of the largest and most stately Baptist meeting houses in the world. There are 1400 seats for parishioners.
In 2012, with donations from believers, the stage was reconstructed, which made it possible to eliminate the mistakes made during the construction.
Baptism is one of the branches of Protestant Christianity, a denomination that branched off from the English Puritans. Other Christian denominations are often hostile to Baptist Christians, but despite persecution, they are one of the largest and most prosperous Christian denominations in the world.
A large friendly community of Christian Baptists lives in Kobrin, who conduct educational, missionary, educational and charitable activities. Baptists attach great importance to music and singing, which is why a variety of concerts are constantly held in the meetinghouse.
