Banner Elk Presbyterian Church

About Us

Our historical church is still very much alive in Christ! We are a friendly, faithful, mission-oriented, inclusive church family that is made up of both full-time and seasonal members from various backgrounds and faith traditions.

We are bound in unity by the Holy Spirit in a deep commitment to share our energy, resources, gifts, and enthusiasm for sharing the gospel and in faithful acts of service here in Banner Elk and beyond! We would love for you to join us Sunday mornings for worship at 8:30am June-August and 11:00am year-round. We have Sunday School for all ages at 9:30am. Come and be a part of God's mission equipping saints here in Banner Elk since 1893.

Banner Elk Presbyterian Church dates back to 1893 and is affiliated with the Presbyterian Church USA. Our 200 or so members comprise a congregation of varied backgrounds, experiences and from many different denominations. While our members range from conservative to liberal, we attempt to focus on what unites us and to learn from one another. We have a long history of hard-working, inclusive congregation out in the community helping others.
