Elkin Presbyterian Church USA

Elkin Presbyterian Church USA Welcome to Elkin Presbyterian Church! Faith in the Foothills of North Carolina!

The history of Elkin Presbyterian Church is a testament to the strong determination of the people of Scottish heritage and Presbyterian faith that started the church in 1892. Like many Presbyterian congregations of its time, the founders were continuing the faith of the reformation begun by John Calvin 16-century Geneva and continued in Scotland by John Knox. During the Depression the church went

through some hard times and a petition circulated to dissolve the congregation. Three members were not present that day, and before the next meeting two weeks later, the matriarch of the Wellborn family had changed the minds of enough people to save the church. What started out as a group of about 10 people has grown to a thriving church of over 150 members. As the number of worshippers grew the church building itself had to grow to meet the needs of the congregation. After starting out in a small white clapboard church, the congregation moved to a brick church on Bridge Street and finally in 1991, the current building was dedicated to the glory of God.

Although we are winding down our 2015-2016 school year, our students are busy as ever! Despite the weather, the students had a wonderful time at the Earth Day Spring Fling. A special thank you goes out to all of the teachers, especially Misty Cranford, for all of their hard work to make it a success. On May 19th, the students will participate in the March of Dimes Wonder Walk for babies. This is an annual event that our school enjoys. We will also go on a field trip to a strawberry farm! Graduation for our Pre-K class will be Thursday, May 31 at 6:00 p.m. We will celebrate all of our students on June 2nd at our end of year program at 10:30 a.m. here in the sanctuary and picnic at the Elkin Park. Church members are welcome to come and watch and then join us for the picnic. Open Enrollment has begun. We still have a few slots available in our classrooms for next year.
