History

The building was first built in 1985 as a facility for people who are developmentally disabled. During the 1990s, this program was discontinued and the building became available. In 1994, the parish purchased the building and converted it into a church. The gymnasium was converted into the nave. The church was consecrated by Bishop Rosemarie Köhn in 1994.
