Adventist Church (other names: Seventh-day Adventist Church, in Russian, Христианская церковь адвентистов седьмого дня) is the first and only Seventh-day Adventist church in the city of Navoi. It was built between 1996 and 2001 and is located on Navoi Street in the city of Navoiy.[1][2][3]
History[edit]
In 1995, a plot of land measuring 0.4 hectares was allocated from the southern-western part of the suburban area of Navoi city, where the construction of a church for the Seventh-day Adventist Christian community was planned.[1]
The construction of the church began in 1996. The project for the Adventist Church was prepared by the Samarkand architect Ali Sodiqov, and he personally led the construction.[1] The first Adventist community in Tashkent was organized in 1910.[4] There are a total of 10 Seventh-day Adventist churches in Uzbekistan.[5] On August 26, 1976, the Adventist community in Tashkent was officially registered for the first time.[6]
The construction was completed in 2001, and it was commissioned for use during the celebration of the 10th anniversary of Uzbekistan's independence.[1]
Architecture[edit]
The building is a comprehensive complex, including a worship hall, library, classrooms, meeting rooms, auditoriums, and a courtyard with a sacred water reservoir capable of accommodating 150 to 200 people.[1]
