Update on Hurricane Relief and Recovery:
Pastor Kathy has been able to contact most of the members of our church family in the WNC mountains and Florida concerning Hurricane Helene and Hurricane Milton. No one has been injured, some have had minor repairable damage, but our members who have homes in the LH Meadows are evaluating the damage and those who were staying at the Down by the River Campground lost their trailers. Avery County Schools hope to open in early November. Relief and recovery efforts continue in Western NC and in Florida. FEMA, the National Guard, EMS, Fire and Police staff, electrical, water, and road crews, Samaritan’s Purse, and many churches and service groups continue to work on clearing trees, roads, and debris, rebuilding culverts, laying pipe, providing basic supplies, and finding temporary housing for folks who are still without power. We had our first snowfall with temperatures in the lower 30s. [Read More]
Our Session has established a Hurricane Relief Fund that will be used to assist our partner non-profits in Avery County when there are no government or private funds to cover expenses for those in desperate need. You can contribute by sending a check to Crossnore Presbyterian Church, designate it for Hurricane Relief, and mail it to P.O. Box 386, Crossnore, NC 28616 or you can go to the “Give Now” button at the top left and right on this website. It will take you to different donation categories [Read More].
“Growing Deeper in Faith, Reaching Out in Love” - Mission Statement of Crossnore Presbyterian Church
Please join us for worship every Sunday morning at 11 a.m. in our historic rock sanctuary. We are a very warm and welcoming congregation and delight with each new person who comes through the door. There are no strangers here. We praise God with a mixture of traditional and contemporary hymns and songs. The service is fresh, relevant, and engaging, and leaves one with an inspiring message and mission to take into the week. Coffee Hour in the fellowship hall after worship provides an opportunity for newcomers to get to know some of the members of the church family. For more information, please contact the church office, at 828-733-1939.
If there is inclement weather, we will post the cancellation of in-person worship on the website, Facebook, and the church office phone message. When we are not able to meet in person, Pastor Kathy records her sermon on Zoom and sends it out along with the bulletin and music links.
