Helping neighbors

Thanks to all who donated to and attended the 9th Annual Chili Supper Fundraiser at First Baptist Church in Crossnore for Crossnore Elementary School on Wednesday, October 17. We raised $3,265 for educational tutors and enjoyed sharing the delicious dinner with the local community. Four churches sponsor this ecumenical event every year: Crossnore Presbyterian Church, PC(USA), Fellowship Presbyterian Church (PCA), First Baptist Church of Crossnore, and Fletcher Presbyterian Church, PC(USA). It is always a joy when Christian brothers and sisters can serve together across denominational lines and help our children grow and learn.

Bible study

Join us for Weekly Bible Study on Wednesdays, 3-4:30 p.m. We are studying the Gospel of Mark. Come and grow in faith with an open group that loves to learn, listen, discuss, and share with one another. There is always room for one more seat at the table.

Christmas Eve

The Annual Christmas Eve Candlelight Service will be held on Monday, December 24, 5:30 p.m. All ages are invited to this Holy Night of worship. Our offering that evening will go to Volunteer Avery, a crisis ministry center that we support in Avery County.

Church potlucks

November Thanksgiving Potluck will be held after our Thanksgiving Worship Service on Sunday, November 18. Roasted Turkey will be provided. Bring a side dish if you are able. Christmas Potluck will be held after our 45th Advent Sunday Worship Service on Sunday, December 16. Ham will be provided. Bring a side dish if you are able.

Knitting Group

A Note from the Crossnore Presbyterian Knitting Group: “We are so appreciative to those who donated in support of our knitting efforts and to all those who knitted. “We were able to donate 40 hats to school children in Avery County and 120 hats, baby bonnets and blankets to the Hospitality House, the homeless shelter in Boone. They were delighted with our donations! The knitting group will take a break through the Christmas holidays, but we will start knitting again in January with renewed energy and enthusiasm. Again, many thanks to everyone who helped and donated to our project!!” Thanks to Janis Kenyon for leading this wonderful group!

Florence relief

Thanks to all who donated to Hurricane Florence relief in October. We collected $880. The funds have been sent to Little Chapel on the Boardwalk, our sister congregation in Wrightsville Beach, NC. They are working directly with W.A.R.M. (Wilmington Area Rebuilding Ministries) on homes that have been rejected by FEMA because the families or individuals do not meet all of the FEMA requirements. We are continuing to accept donations. If you would like to donate, make your check out to Crossnore Presbyterian Church and designate it for Hurricane Relief. Please keep members of our church family and all who continue to suffer from the aftermath of Hurricane Florence.

Weddings at Crossnore Church

We include a $100 Ingles grocery card along with toiletries, socks, and some homemade goodies. Please consider donating to this effort or even sponsoring one Thanksgiving Basket. You can make your check out to Crossnore Presbyterian Church and designate it for a Thanksgiving basket. Thanks for caring and sharing!
