After World War II, the Catholic parishes of Karelia and Vyborg Terijoki were merged, with services held in Lahti. A more central location was sought, however, and so the community moved to a chapel in Jyväskylä on January 10, 1949. Outgrowing this space, a new church was commissioned in 1962. Designed by Olavi Kivimaa, it is an austere concrete structure with a covered facade.{{citation|url=https://sites.google.com/site/pyhaenolavinseurakunta/historia|title=Historia|publisher=Pyhän Olavin Seurakunta|accessdate=November 2, 2016}}

The parish serves most Catholics in central and eastern Finland. In addition to the church, it sponsors a parish center, a Catholic school, a student residence, a rectory and apartments.
