North Congregational Church was built in Springfield, Massachusetts in 1872-73, and was one of the early works by noted American architect Henry Hobson Richardson.
The structure is of light sandstone and does not show the more distinctive features of later Richardsonian Romanesque works by Richardson and others.
While the exterior is rectangular, the interior is cruciform with the corners filled by functional spaces i.e. the vestibule and church offices.
[2] By 2016, the church was operating as IAR (Iglesia Apostolica Renovacion) Springfield, part of the Apostolic Renewal Renovation Network, a network of 27 churches in 6 countries.
It was a bilingual Apostolic congregation with Hispanic, African-American and Anglo-Saxon members, and a regular attendance of 500 people.
