The first Christian-Orthodox Church constructed in the last 73 years was sanctified in Balti

The church of Tuturor Sfintilor is the Metropolitan Church of Moldava built in Bucovina style.

The Church which carries the name of Tuturor Sfintilor subordinated to the Metropolitan Church of Moldova. Despite that, the architecture of the church is constructed in Bucovina style, DECA-press transmits.

The new church is one of the few sacred buildings from the Republic of Moldova with two levels. The construction of the church was estimated at two million lei. The biggest part of the spent money was offered by the parson of the Church Tuturor Sfintilor, Vitalie Barladeanu.

“We've constructed the church for six years. I am grateful to people who repplied to our appeal and contributed both money and labour forces at the construction of the church. Today, only the first level of the church has been finished, but we still need one million lei to finish the second level”, priest Vitalie Barladeanu declared for DECA-press.

According to the Archbishop of Balti and Falesti, Marchel, the resumption after a break of 73 of te construction of churches on the territory of Balti is a proof of the orthodox faith most Balti citizens opt for.

The last church was built in Balti in 1935. This is the Cathedral of Saint Constantin and Elena, which was constructed on the monet of the Romanian state at the insistence of the Archbishop of Hotin Visarion Puiu.
