This one-storey, stone church on the northwest corner of Hugo Street and Mulvey Avenue in Winnipeg replaced a modest mission church, built in 1904, that had been situated across Mulvey Avenue from the present structure. Designed by Henry William Greene, its foundation stone was laid at a ceremony on 17 June 1920 and the church was built by the Claydon Company at a cost of $22,500. The church was damaged in a major fire on 1 August 1970. The building is a municipally-designated historic site (1989).
