It was built in 1928 with a 35 by 50 feet (11 m × 15 m) nave and a 12 by 38 feet (3.7 m × 11.6 m) sanctuary and sacristy offset at the rear. It was modified with additions in 1977. [2]

[3] The six are: Catholic Church of the Sacred Heart (Emmett, Idaho), Emmett Presbyterian Church, First Baptist Church of Emmett, Methodist Episcopal Church (Emmett, Idaho), and St. Mary's Episcopal Church (Emmett, Idaho), which were all listed in 1980, and the First Full Gospel/United Pentecostal Church, which was not listed.
