The parish is Roman (or Latin) rite, under the jurisdiction of the Latin Patriarchate of Jerusalem (Patriarcha Hierosolymitanus Latinorum). The parish celebrated its 50-year parish anniversary in 2012, and was restored for the occasion with funds from the Patriarchate.
The Patriarchate was restored by Pope Pius IX in 1847 by the apostolic brief Nulla celebrior.
