From the ideas and dreams of 50 families, a Church was built in the Bayshore area of New Jersey now serving over 450 families. Beginning in 1973, with the founding of the Bayshore American Hellenic Association (BAHA), a dedicated group of people organized to share their common beliefs, values, language, and customs. With 88 signatures to apply to the Archdiocese to begin a Church, His Eminence Archbishop Iakovos issued a temporary charter and ratified the Interim Parish Council on July 16, 1976.
From that date one, plans were set in motion to raise funds, buy land in 1977, and build a Church. All during the that time, Church services and other activities were held in local venues. With Groundbreaking in 1986, the path was cleared to begin construction. A Building Committee, chaired by Michael Loizou in 1985, began the process that resulted in Door-opening on December 18, 1988.
