This building was erected in 1902 as an Anglican Mission Church, located several blocks away on Rachel Street (now Annabella Street) near Sutherland Avenue. In 1906, the City of Winnipeg expropriated land in the area to widen Sutherland Avenue and made arrangements with the congregation to move the building to its present site on Disraeli Street. The Mission closed around the time of the First World War and, in 1918, the building was purchased by the congregation of St. Michael (originally known as the National Greek Orthodox Church of St. Michael) and renovated into a Ukrainian Orthodox Church. It is a municipally-designated historic site and, in 2018, its congregation received an MHS Centennial Organization Award.
