The church was organized in 1854. Its first church was a two-story wooden frame building that was shared with local Masons, who held the meetings upstairs from the church.[2]
The church's second building, built in 1890, is a brick building of Gothic Revival design located at the corner of Church and W. High Streets in Manchester.[1][2] In 1961, the church vacated this building when it moved to its present location on the corner of McArthur and Coffee Streets.[2] The 1890 church building was added to the National Register in 1992,[1] and was delisted in 2021.[3][4]
