This church has a somewhat odd shaped sanctuary, along the lines of a quonset, but much taller in aspect ratio. The quonset also has "wings" on each side, creating more inside space. The church also has what may be the tallest bell tower in town, a straight square tower of at least 60 feet in height, housing a single bell in its open tower. It is topped with a large cross, adding another ten feet or so to its height.
Dedicated in 1965, this church was completed in 1970. Toward the rear is a small memorial garden. It doesn't appear to have been dedicated to anyone or anything in particular.
