Waldensian Presbyterian Church

Our early service, called “Connections,” is a  more casual, briefer, and informal service, held at 8:45am upstairs in Pioneer Hall, September through May.  Light refreshments are available, and all are invited to sing with the band.   Our Connections Band is usually comprised of drums, keyboard, guitar, and several singers.  They sing and play varied music--new songs and old--from our Glory to God Presbyterian hymnal and beyond. We celebrate the Sacrament of the Lord’s Supper throughout the year, and it is an open Communion, such that all those who believe in Jesus Christ are welcomed to share Communion with us. 

Our traditional service takes place in our sanctuary at 11:00am (starting time shifts to 10:00am during summers when our two services are combined). We celebrate the Sacrament of the Lord’s Supper throughout the year, and it is an open Communion, such that all those who believe in Jesus Christ are welcomed to share Communion with us.  

For our music in worship, we have a 19-rank mechanical action pipe organ, Létourneau Op. 133, which was installed in November of 2017.  Our organist, Carla Sperry of Black Mountain, is a master of the instrument and plays service music including classical organ literature and hymn settings by current organ composers and arrangers.   We also have a refurbished Steinway 1932 Model M baby grand piano. Our congregation sings from Glory to God, the Presbyterian hymnal published in 2013. Other music in our worship is offered by our Chancel Choir, Handbell Choir, Children’s Choir, instrumental and vocal ensembles, including the Connections Band during times when we combine our services.  

All are invited to our worship services. Children may sit with their parents throughout the service or leave with adult Children’s Church volunteers after the children’s message. Our nursery is available until 12:15pm, and is located on the lower floor of the education building.

Join us as we resume our Wednesday Night Meals beginning September 10 at 5:30pm in Pioneer Hall. 

We will join for a meal and fellowship, and occasionally have musical entertainment during the meal.

We request that you RSVP to the church office (in person, by calling  (828) 874-2531, or by emailing the secretary at  office@waldpres.org, by Noon on the Monday before the meal.
