Church Website

The church met at Southwestern University from 1874 until it built its own “Chapel” on the southwest corner of Southwestern University’s original campus in 1882.

In 1892 the cornerstone of the present church was laid. Four large, composite sets of leaded, stained-glass windows of Gothic Revival characteristics and a number of small, high windows were installed in the sanctuary. Construction was completed in 1893.

Formal dedication of the sanctuary took place the third Sunday of October in 1896.
