The original congregation met in "The Little White Church" until the completion of the new St. Luke's church and parish center. The rapid growth of the congregation soon strained the limits of the building, and construction of a larger church building began in 2000. The magnificent church that serves as our parish home was opened in September 2002 and officially dedicated by Bishop Galeone on November 17, 2002. The original multi-purpose building continues to serve as the parish hall for events and meetings, along with the parish administrative offices.
The growth of the physical church buildings reflects the growth of the real Church, the faithful. What began over two decades ago as a handful of local faithful in "The Little White Church" has expanded into a thriving community of God made up of over two thousand families.
