The Emmanuel Baptist Church in downtown Alexandria, Louisiana was built in 1950. It was added to the National Register of Historic Places on November 21, 2001.[1]
The building was designed by New Orleans architects Favrot & Reed. Jacoby Stained Glass Studios of St. Louis also contributed to the project.[2]
In 1960 the building was expanded by an addition to the rear, and its education building was extensively remodeled.[2]
A family life center was added to Emmanuel in the late 1970s under the leadership of then pastor Schuyler M. Batson (1923–1996). It was built by Buddy Tudor's family-owned construction company in Pineville.
