The first building used by Jonathan Smith Green for his services was nothing more than a simple shed; it was built on land owned by Kahale family granted under King Kamehameha III.

In 1834, due to the ballooning congregation numbers (3000 worshipers was noted at one point) a second building was built, which was a thatched structure.
However, despite the large worship numbers, the actual permanent membership of the church was small; an 1834-1835 report noted eleven members of the church.

During the "Great Revival" between 1837–1840, the church membership ballooned to 487; the 1838-1839 year alone saw 200 new members into the church.
With this swell in membership, a new third church structure was built under the supervision of Richard Armstrong after Jonathan Smith Green left in 1836.
Built in 1840, the "two-story" (One floor and a gallery) stone church was 100 by 52 feet (30 by 16 m).
However, problems with the roof was noted by Jonathan Smith Green after his return in 1841 to replace Richard Armstrong.
Deemed a "failure" by Jonathan Smith Green, the roof was fixed after a $648.28 expenditure.

William Patterson Alexander was installed at the church in 1857 after pastor Daniel Conde was not liked by the congregation and a petition to have him removed was circulated.
Alexander noted that a new church was needed, and advocated building a new one as early as 1866.
It wasn't until 1872 that fund-raising efforts were undertaken by William Pulepule Kahale, the first Native Hawaiian Pastor in the church, to build a new structure.
