Renovation update
Scaffolding has begun going up on the Greene Street side and the narthex side of the sanctuary, and will take about two weeks to complete. Tunnels will be built around the entrance doors in those locations. No work will be done on Sundays, or on any day when a memorial service is being held. Learn more here.

An Extra Note…
OUR FAITH COMMUNITY has been serving God with joy since 1824. (The Greensboro Historical Museum was our church in the late 19th century.) We celebrate that history, but we are more excited about our future! We believe we are called to share Christ’s message of love and grace in the things we do and say. We are not perfect, but like Presbyterians everywhere, we are reformed and always reforming. We think you can find a spiritual home here. Come and see!
