Three families from Wheaton area farms organized the establishment of an Episcopal church in 1875.

Bishop William E. McLaren held the first services in the local Universalist church, located where the DuPage County Historical Museum now stands.

The exterior of the original church (now the chapel) is covered with beveled siding.

The interior features matched and beaded fir boards laid in alternating panels.

Pews are 13.75 inches (349 mm) wide and are built from individual pine boards.
