Description

It was deemed architecturally significant at the local level as an excellent example of the Victorian Gothic style. It is also historically significant as the first church built in the town and as an important early example of the "community church" phase of Protestant church activity in Utah that was then predominantly inhabited by members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.^[2]
