The old church from 1953 was demolished. In 2004, the current church was built on the same location. In 1954, a church was built for the Apostolic Society at Van Baerlestraat 130, designed by E. Bunders. A renovation took place in 1971 under the leadership of JD van Arkel. This building was demolished in 2004, after which a new church was built on the same location, designed by architect Martin Eijkelenboom of Terrena architects in Rotterdam. The new church was put into use on Sunday 26 June 2005. During the construction of the new church, church services were temporarily held in De Vonkenberg in Zwijndrecht. A striking feature of the new building, which seats 200, is the aluminium roof. The church has 53 stained glass windows, designed by church member Carla de Vries - van Westrenen. In the reception hall, there are two panels, composed of the stained glass windows from the old church. A new organ has been installed with 14 stops and almost a thousand pipes.
