The congregation was organized in 1851. The church was originally constructed during 1857–59.[2]

It is a one-story 36 by 55 feet (11 m × 17 m) plan building. It is built of Cooksville red brick, with local tan brick for approx. seven course rim & base trim, on a limestone foundation.[2]

Additions constructed by 'Roberts Construction Inc" were completed, with the latest new basketball court/dining hall, & lower level educational classrooms completed in 2016, designed by nearby Madison architect Ron Siggelkow of Dimension IV. The addition created a new and compatible compliment to the original historic chapel. The worship room/sanctuary from a previous addition accommodates a larger congregation than the original historic Chapel, which now serves as a congregation room. A new lobby and entry connect the gym & the historic annex & sanctuary, over-looking the Rock River (Mississippi River tributary).
