History and description
Designed by the firm of Duhring, Okie & Ziegler, the building likely was the work of architect H. Louis Duhring Jr. Duhring's father was a prominent Episcopal minister in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, and a friend of Joseph P. Remington, the donor of the land for the church.

It was heavily damaged in a fire on June 30, 2012. The fire was thought to be started when the church was struck by lightning from a storm connected with the June 2012 North American derecho severe-weather event. The surviving structure was deemed unsafe and demolished on July 2, 2012.
