The church in Chereya is one of the first Uniate churches in the Grand Duchy of Lithuania at the beginning of the 17th century, built according to the design of Lev Sapieha. At the end of the 18th century, the church was wooden and had two domes and was called Resurrection (Uvaskresennia Bozhaga). The church was damaged by fire, but was recreated by Natalia Milosh: in 1824, a new brick shrine was built in the town, based on the stylistic features of Belarusian sacred architecture of the 15th–16th centuries. In 1835, the newly built church became Orthodox, at the instigation of Vasily Luzhinsky. In 1935, the church was closed, and since 1956 it has been turned into a warehouse. Since the late 1990s, services have been held again, this time in the renamed Church of St. Archangel Michael.
