Our traditionally styled church is located on the western portion of Fifth Avenue, just as it enters the township of Laurel Park, in Hendersonville, NC. Click here for pictures of our church. Our memorial garden is a place for rest, meditation and prayer. With a large wooden cross as its focal point, hemlocks, pink dogwoods, rhododendrons, azaleas, juniper and holly accent the garden. There are also bright displays of annual plants in the spring, summer and fall. Click here for pictures of the memorial garden.

On most Sundays before services we hold an adult forum where we discuss topics of interest and how they affect society and our lives. Click here to view some recent pictures.

If weather permits, and it has for the last few years, our Palm Sunday services are preceded by a prayer service on the church steps. There is a sound system so those who desire to sit inside can hear the beginnings of the service. Click here for these pictures.
