Our Church Building
Our building, a signature piece by regionally celebrated architect Frank Furness, is a designated historic landmark. The Sanctuary seats over 500, yet, owing to its unusual design, is an intimate setting for much smaller gatherings. It is graced with rich colors, as well as a Casavant Freres organ and Steinway grand piano.

The Chapel, a jewel of stained glass and carved wood, seats 50; there is a Baldwin upright piano in the chapel loft.

The Parish Room, a sunny Victorian parlor, accommodates small to mid-sized receptions. Griffin Hall, our social hall, with adjacent kitchen, seats 150.
