The Immanuel Armenian Congregational Church was founded in 1930 in Los Angeles, California, with the first building on Washington Boulevard. The founding minister was Rev. Aram Yeretzian. It is among the oldest extant California congregations of the Armenian Evangelical Union of North America.

The church relocated to Downey, California in 1979, to the former home of the Downey Congregational Church, its current location.
