The church was constructed in 1867, designed in the Romanesque Revival style with round arched windows, a central tower and brownstone exterior.  It is one of four buildings on the 55-acre campus, which includes an active cemetery, an 1880 former manse and a contemporary fellowship hall.  The sanctuary building has been closed since March 2007 because of structural concerns evidenced by a bowed wall and some exterior cracks.  The church was listed as one of the state’s most endangered properties in 2009. 

The grant will help fund a detailed structural assessment and preparation of design and construction documents to remedy the structural deficiency.
