The construction of the church was begun in the spring 1919. Everybody of the Russo Greek Orthodox Faith helped by donating money, lumber, nails, and especially labor. The men of the parish built tables, benches, etc., while the ladies prepared food, embroidered altar cloths and wove bench covers and rugs. The head carpenter was Gora Purich and Martin Yasinsky. Their workmanship stands today as a church and historical landmark at Chahor, Alberta. The name Chahor is now used in memory of the village in Chernivtsi, Ukraine.

Around 1945, a combination bell-house and parish hall was built.

The church cemetery is on the same four acres of land as the church.

Today parish life continues. The Holy Divine Liturgy is celebrated four-five times a year. Devoted members of the church always come here to pray to God and to thank Him for His blessings.
