The earliest mention of the church in Gniewczyce can be considered the book “Mironowicz A.: The Turaŭ-Pinsk bishopric in the 11th-16th centuries. Trans Humana, 2011.” Where in the Turow-Pińsk Biskupstvo the paraphyses in the XI-XVI century are described, the Gniewicz paraphy is also mentioned. The church after the signing of the Unia was converted to Greek Catholicism, which is confirmed by the preserved metric Uniate books in RGIA for 1800-1801.

Gorki was part of Drohiczynski County, so it is worth mentioning the local church. The exact date of its foundation is not known, but we will start from the oldest documents, which are available for this church. Gorki is mentioned in the list of Christian Catholic settlements from 1726. RGIA has copies of the Uniate metric books of the Horeckiey church from 1748 to 1801. There is also a mention of Gorki in the Uniate metric books of the Ilyinska church in 1774-1822.

There are no precise data on the construction or already functioning church before the Union of Brest. The first official mention at this time can be considered in the list of Christian Catholic settlements of 1726, where Holowczyce is mentioned. In the description of “Descriptions of churches and parishes. Grodno Orthodox Church Calendar. Volume 1”, it is mentioned that the current church was built by the owner of the Holowczyce estate Kutnikov and parishioners in 1766 on the place of the old church, which burned down.
