Church was built in 1832 when A.G. Pierce donated a half-acre of land in to build a church and a school. The original building stood two stories high: a first floor of logs for the school; and a second story of frame construction for worship, with a separate entrance from the outside. Black worshippers sat in a gallery. The church was named for John Emory of <a href="/wiki/Queen_Anne%27s_County,_Maryland" title="Queen Anne's County, Maryland">Queen Anne's County, Maryland</a>, who had just been ordained bishop. Bishop Emory paid the $200 salary of the preacher's salary. In 1856, the 72-person congregation replaced the building with a red-brick structure that was torn down in 1861 for Union Army fortifications. A stone church was built in 1870.<sup id="cite_ref-proctor-1949_1-3" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-proctor-1949-1"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>1<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup><sup class="reference nowrap"><span title="Page / location: 101">: 101 </span></sup> The present-day building, at 6100 Georgia Avenue NW, was erected in 1921.
