When Slavonic people first came to this area the only way they could worship was to cross in small rowboats and skiffs to a parish on the north side of the Ohio River. In 1914 the St. Nicholas parish was incorporated in McKees Rocks; the temple was dedicated in 1917. In more recent years immigrants from Russia, as well as others, have been welcomed to the parish.
