Built in 1853–54, the church is located at 105 Pine Street, a major road through Harrisonburg, just off the east end of a bridge crossing the Ouachita River. After a flood in 1927, the church was modified in 1929 and further expanded in 1957.[2]

It is a one-story Classical Revival-style church with a covered portico and a "witch's hat" cupola upon which a crucifix rises.[2]
