This church was designed by architects Van Slyke and Woodruff and built by Reinhart and Donovan from Oklahoma City. The building is constructed from limestone and is a Greek Cross in plan with a copper clad dome at the crossing. The original plans called for six smaller domes to be placed on the corners of the building and on the corners of the 6th Street pediment. The style of the building is Renaissance Revival. It sits on the site of the former building of the church called the Old Rock Church. The church has a beautiful interior that has been artfully restored.
