The village Novoselivka on the Samara River is located south of city Samar. Administratively, it is part of the Pishchanka territorial hromada of of the Samar district of Dnipropetrovsk region.
According to one of the versions, it was here in the 18th century that the Cossack settlement of Novoselitsa was located - the center of the Samara palanka of Zaporizhzhia Sich. According to another version, Novoselitsa is the current Samar.
Now this is an area of intensive cottage construction.
Село Новоселівка на річці Самара розташоване на південь від міста Самар. Адміністративно входить до складу Піщанської територіальної громади Самарівського району Дніпропетровської області.
За однією з версій, саме тут в XVIII сторіччі знаходилося козацьке поселення Новоселиця - центр Самарської паланки Запорозької Січі. За іншою версією, Новоселиця - це нинішній Самар.
Зараз це зона інтенсивної котеджної забудови.
Assumption of Holy Virgin Mary Church
Temple
The Church of the Assumption of the Holy Virgin Mary in Novoselivka was founded in 1780.
The wooden temple served the parishioners properly until the 1930s, then it was closed by the Bolsheviks. Divine services were restored during the Second World War. The church operated until 1960, then it was closed again, and the building was equipped with a gym, then a warehouse. In 1981, the village council decided to destroy the church building: the wooden structure was broken with difficulty, and the granite plinth and foundation could not be destroyed even with a bulldozer.
In 1985, a small church in the name of Archangel Gabriel was built on the foundation. In 2003, a place was consecrated for the construction of a new temple, the construction of the walls of which was completed in 2008. Soon, the first divine service was held in the lower church of the Assumption Church.
