The parish was founded in 1956 by Archpriest Oleg Boldireff as a summer chapel for the Russian community of Montreal holidaying in Rawdon. According to the Rawdon historical society, the small onion-domed church was built in 1958 on 17th Avenue and moved in 1964 to 15th Avenue, next to the Russian cemetery opened three years earlier. The church and cemetery are administered by Sts Peter and Paul Sobor in Montreal (Archdiocese of Canada, Orthodox Church in America).
Приход основан в 1956 году протоиереем Олегом Болдыревым как летняя часовня для русской общины Монреаля, отдыхавшей в Родоне. По данным Исторического общества Родона, небольшая церковь с луковичной главой построена в 1958 году на 17-й авеню, а в 1964 году перенесена на 15-ю авеню, к русскому кладбищу, открытому тремя годами раньше. Церковь и кладбище находятся в ведении Петропавловского собора в Монреале (Канадская архиепископия Православной церкви в Америке).
