Lypivka is an ancient multinational settlement, the first mention of which dates back to 1390. At first it was called Liatske (later Liatske-Shliakhetske), the modern name appeared in 1946.
The first written mentions of the local temple date back to 1578. But the modern church of the Resurrection of Christ was built in 1700 on the western outskirts of the village, where in 1711-1724 there was a Holy Trinity monastery. After the monastery was closed the shrine was dissembled and moved to the village center, where in 1728 it was rebuilt as a parish church. It is the oldest remained wooden church in the Tysmenytsia district.
The building is three-logged, single story, cruciform in plan. The octagonal nave is its distinguishing feature. Originally the church had a shingled roof. Probably in 1908 when the sacristy was being attached, the building was covered with tin. The temple lower roof was covered with tin in the second half of the 20th century.
Due to the Russian occupation of Galicia during the First World War, the Liatske-Shliakhetske parish converted to Orthodoxy. In 1946 the Greek Catholic parish became a part of the Russian Orthodox Church under the authorities’ pressure. In Soviet times the temple was not closed.
The miraculous icon of the Virgin Hodegetria is closely connected with the history of the monastery and the church. According to experts it was painted at the end of the 17th century. It is quite possible that J. Kondzelevych was its author. On the Blessed Virgin’s and the Child Jesus’ heads there are silver gilded crowns, made in 1887 (until then they were painted)
Since 2000 the miraculous icon has been in the new church of St. Jehosaphat. Every year on July 6, the Lypivka and neighboring villages parishioners solemnly carry the icon for prayer at the place of its appearance in the forest next to the old oak and the monastery spring, where the monastery was located.
Nowadays the church is functioning and belongs to the UGCC community.
It is an architectural monument of local importance.
