The parish was formed in 1949 by Russian and Serbian emigrant workers following the WWII.  The funds for the building of the church were raised over many years through Balls and donations.
Fr Theodore Boriskevich was rector for 25 years before passing away in 1972.
For most of the last 40 years the parish has operated without a resident priest. Despite this fact and a global pandemic, the parish has grown in recent years, a miraculous event, to the Glory of God. The parish now consists of people from the traditional Orthodox lands of Russia and Ukraine, Serbia, Greece and Ethiopians but a large percentage of parishioners are converts with various backgrounds.
