The church was founded in 1898 by Russian immigrants, mostly from the region of the Carpathian Mountains in the former Austro-Hungarian Empire. Named in honor of 3 fourth-century church Hierarchs, the founding of the Three Saints Church is connected to the lives of three more recent saints: Saint TIKHON (Belavin), Saint ALEXANDER Hotovitzky and Saint ALEXIS Toth.

The cornerstone of the Three Saints Church was laid on July 3, 1901, which was destroyed by fire in 1916. The present day structure was completed in 1916.
