The Orthodox Parish was founded by the now reposed Deacon Photios Touloumes and the Orthodox Faithful in the area who desired a parish life that would keep the traditions of the Orthodox Christian Faith.  The first service was celebrated in 1973 in the living room of the house of Deacon Photios’s mother, and Vasiliki Touloumes. 
During those first years, services were held by Deacon Photios and Father John Lewis, who traveled from his parish of Saint Mark of Ephesus in Basking Ridge, New Jersey.  After several years, a building was acquired, and the iconostasion installed.  Father John Lewis was succeeded by Father Demetrius Serfes. 
Iconographer Nicholas Fotiou of Boston, Massachusetts, completed the icons on the walls just in time for the Third Annual Orthodox Conference in the summer of 1981, hosted by the parish, with session held at Dickinson College in nearby Carlisle.
Father Demetrius Serfes served at the parish until February 1982.  Father Rodian Laskowski arrived in August of 1982, later guiding the parish through the sad but necessary departure of the Russian Orthodox Chuch Outside of Russia (ROCOR) for matters of faith.
Years later, May of 1999, the growing parish moved to a newly constructed parish building nearby.  The consecration was attended by many Bishops, clergy, and faithful.
