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.

The church in Subboty (formerly called Malaya Torokan) was built in 1797 by Basilian monks from the Tarakan monastery (now v. Imienin). The description of the date of construction is available in “Descriptions of churches and parishes. Grodno Orthodox Church Calendar. Volume 1.” It is worth noting that in 1899 there were already 2 churches attached to this church from Imienin and Losinets. The first one was probably assigned because of the decline of the Basilian monastery after the Polotsk cathedral.
