History

In 1886, an Episcopalian church was built on the land. By 1937, instead of renovating the current building, the congregation wanted to construct a new, larger building. The church hired architectural firm Cram and Ferguson to design it. With World War II on the horizon, the church pushed to start the new church's construction in 1941. On March 29, 1942, the first worship service in the new church was held by Reverend Paul Matthews. Stained glass windows were installed in the church between 1946 and 1947 by the Willet Stained Glass Studio.[1]

Rectors

The current Rector is Stuart Shelby.
