3-story Renaissance-Gothic church building and 5-story parish house completed in 1886. The church was built as a Sunday school mission for immigrant children. Both structures are clad in red brick with limestone trim.

The church building, on the east, has a pointed-arch entrance at the left side, with wooden double-doors framed under a stone gable. To the right is a triple-window with stained-glass and limestone surrounds. At the 2nd floor, the tip of the gable just overlaps the easternmost of the three single-windows, also with stained-glass; there are shallow pointed-arches above these windows. At the top of the facade there is a pointed arch window flanked by two smaller arched windows, with stone architraves, and a tall crowning gable.

The parish house to the west is three bays wide, with the entrance at the left, with glass double-doors atop a couple of steps. To the right are two segmental-arched windows; all three of these openings have keystones on top, joined by a stone string course running above them. The top of the basement level is exposed by a small areaway enclosed by an iron fence. It is clad in brighter red brick, with two segemental-arched windows with brick lintels. The upper floors of the parish house, set off by a stone cornice, have square-headed windows in full stone surrounds, including bracketed sills and cornices. The facade is crowned by a black metal roof cornice with brackets, modillions, dentils, and panels.
