The parish dates from 1908, and this church dates from 1997. This parish consolidates the now-closed Nativity of the Blessed Virgin Mary parish in Belgique, Our Lady of the Rosary parish in Claryville, and Saint John the Evangelist mission in Lithium. Like many other churches in that part of the Archdiocese, it is staffed by a priest of the Congregation of the Mission.

The shape isn't too bad but the color and texture of the surface leaves something to be desired from my point of view. Something happened in the 60s that left our ecclesiastical architects with a variant of ADD I think.
