Old Fort, NC
Welcome to Old Fort Presbyterian Church
144 East Main Street, P.O. Box 70, Old Fort, NC 28762
Nestled in the southern-most tip of the Pisgah National Forest, Old Fort is a PC(USA) community that is steeped in mountain heritage. Old Fort Presbyterian Church is a small worshipping community with a big heart! Our worship service starts at 9:30am with a brief time for fellowship and prayer requests before we worship. Come join us!
WORSHIP -- On Sunday mornings, we begin gathering at 9:30 for conversation and fellowship time and start worship at 9:45 with the ringing of the bell in the steeple. We seek to find a balance of online and in-person worship/fellowship so that those who cannot attend worship for whatever reason (distance, health, weather, etc) are still a part of our community. Please reach out to us by email (oldfortpres@gmail.com) if you would like to join us online.
The ways in which we gather for worship have changed a lot over the last few years, but our dedication to gathering weekly to celebrate our faith has not changed. We invite you to join our congregation and participate in worship however you are able. We share The Lord's Supper (Communion) on the first Sunday of each month as well as other special occasions as determined by the session.
FELLOWSHIP -- We gather once every other month for fellowship and the enjoyment of a meal out at a local restaurant. These dates of these gatherings vary depending on the schedules of the members and are announced at worship times.

Christmas 2023
Our congregation has a long history of celebrating Christmas with the traditional Advent wreath as well as a Christmas tree decorated with Chrismon ornaments created by the women of the church about 50 years ago. Poinsettias have made their appearance more recently as part of our decorations and we honor its original name of cuetlaxochitl or la flor de Nochebuenan, "the flower of Christmas Eve".
IN PERSON WORSHIP
Our first day back in the sanctuary (Summer 2021). It was a good day to be together again!
