This Greek Revival church was the first Christian house of worship built north of the Columbia River. Parishioners abandoned the church in 1874 and townspeople demolished it in 1894.

The Methodist-Episcopal Church in Steilacoom, WA, was a simple, gable-roofed building, with clapboard siding and a tower with a steep spire placed at the entrance end. The bell from the church steeple was saved and placed in a rusticated monument commemorating its original location.
