неденоминационный

Nedenominatsionny. Of course dictionaries give a descriptive solution like "pertaining (or not pertaining, if non-) to a certain religious creed. But the below link proves that the term I offered is really in circulation. It says "...the magazine is nondenominational, thus being open for any creed ..." using "nedenominatsionny".

Addition to my first answer

This is for your reference. Depending on context, use the following forms of it: masculine - nedenominatsionny (неденоминационный); fem. - nedenominatsionnaya (неденоминационная), neuter - nedenominatsionnoye (неденоминационное).

Религиозная деноминация - неденоминационная

Concerning gender:
Конфессия - неденоминационнАЯ
Церковь - неденоминационнАЯ
But: вероисповедание - неденоминационнОЕ

In your context most probable is
"Религиозная деноминация - неденоминационная" (fem.)

See below.


Typically, in a questionnaire-type of context, this line will look as follows:

Вероисповедание – нерегилиозен.

Veroispovedaniye - nereligiozen.

Hope that this helps.

Regards.

Peer comment(s):

disagree Nina Krivtsova : Non-denominational means that somebody believes in God but isn't neither Roman Catholic nor, say, Orthodox.
