The parish was established in 1898 as the Russian Orthodox Church of the Dormition by Carpatho-Russian immigrants from Austria-Hungary who worked in the local quarries. The present church on Main Street was built in 1905–1906 and consecrated in 1906 by Archbishop Tikhon (Bellavin). At the parishioners' request Emperor Nicholas II sent four icons for the iconostasis, liturgical vessels and a donation. An Ohio historical marker was erected at the church in 2022.
Приход основан в 1898 году как русская православная церковь Успения переселенцами-карпатороссами из Австро-Венгрии, работавшими в местных каменоломнях. Нынешний храм на Мейн-стрит построен в 1905–1906 годах и освящён в 1906 году архиепископом Тихоном (Беллавиным). По просьбе прихожан император Николай II прислал для храма четыре иконы иконостаса, богослужебные сосуды и денежный взнос. В 2022 году у церкви установлен исторический знак штата Огайо.
