In 1953 an evangelist Stan Ford held a gospel campaign in a large tent where the church now stands. The tent remained on the site after this, and a Sunday School and other meetings were held in it until it blew down in a gale. In 1954 a metal hut, dismantled from a site in Bedlinog, was erected here and a church was commenced, its opening service being on Sat. 15th May. The present brick-built chapel was opened on 7th March 1959, and an extension added in 1976. The church was originally called Llanishen Gospel Hall, then Emmaus Chapel, before the present name.
