The Limestone Lake congregation of the Ukrainian Catholic Church of St. Michael the Archangel was formed in 1898 by a handful of early settlers. Services were held in private homes for six years until a humble place of worship was completed. All of the faithful members volunteered, helping to haul and trim logs, raising the walls then filling the spaces between with moss and clay. The roof was framed with lumber and shingles and a metal dome was added.

This small pioneer structure served the congregation until it burned down in the late 1930s. In 1939 the present church was built, once again with the hard work of its committed members.
