The current church building was designed by Blackall, Clapp and Whittemore and C.S. Allen and Company and built in 1922. Colonial Revival in style, it has a pedimented entry portico with fluted columns.[3] It was built on the foundation of the previous church to stand at the site, a Gothic Revival structure that burned in 1921.
