As of 1910 there was a Lutheran church in Neu-Hussenbach. The congregation there was part of the parish headquartered in Brunnental which is where the pastor resided.
Neu-Hussenbach was founded as a Lutheran colony in 1860 by colonists from Hussenbach, Dietel, Huck, Norka and Grimm. It was located along the Gashon River from which its Russian name was taken.
Today, Neu-Hussenbach is known as Pervomayskaya.
