NYFE Summary

The parish began meeting in a hotel before moving to this hillside. A parishioner gave the present church as a memorial to his sister.

Rough local traprock contrasts with reddish brownstone around the doors and windows. The front rose window sits inside alternating bands of the two stones. Carved crosses top the steep gables.
