The Methodist congregation in Delta started out sharing a building at 77 King Street with the Anglicans and the Baptists. Eventually erecting their own place of worship at 25 King St, the Methodists built this church around 1888 on property purchased from William Russell for $150. In 1925, The United Church of Canada was formed by a union between the Methodist Church, the Congregational Union Church and 70% of the Presbyterian Church, and so this building became Delta United Church.

The brick building features a single left-side extension spire with a small right-hand tower (the original large steeple was removed after 1975). All the windows are Gothic style centre-pointed. The large window which lines up with the centre of the gable includes a flower design, the same design being mimicked in the transom above the front entrance, and in wood in the design at the top of the bell tower. Located in the peak of the front façade are small single-paned double gothic windows. This same pattern of window is also located midway up the bell tower.
