In the early part of the 20th century, immigrants from the area of Aamor and Karm Al-Mohr in Lebanon settled on the South Side of New Castle. These immigrants were identified by their Maronite Catholic faith. By 1920, the Lebanese had a well-established community and family connections.
However, the Maronite Catholic community lacked a permanent home and a priest. So, they met informally. to worship, in storerooms on Long Avenue, Sciota Street and Moravia Street. Their love of their heritage and faith sustained them until they were able to buy their first church building, on Howard Way, in 1926. This love and determination carried them through the Great Depression and they were able to build the current building in 1935 at 2 West Reynolds Street.
