The Congregational Church,UCC, in Tryon welcomes persons of all ages, races, social and economic circumstances, sexual orientations, gender identities and gender expressions, abilities and church backgrounds to participate in the life and ministry of our church.

SUNDAY MORNING WORSHIP

Worship is at 10:00 am in the Sanctuary and online via livestream. 

We strive to be a community where worship is dynamic and extends beyond Sunday morning and the walls of our sanctuary. We ground ourselves in the still speaking words of scripture, and progressive theology and liturgy. We take seriously listening for the imaginative calling of the Holy Spirit.

The service includes music from soloists, musicians, organ accompaniment, bell choir and other special musical offerings. Due to the nature of the pandemic, we have temporarily suspended our Chancel Choir.

Children are always welcome to join us in the sanctuary for the entirety of worship. For those children who wish to participate in Children’s Worship, please join the class outside, prior to worship. Children who attend Children’s worship will rejoin the congregation at the time of offertory, and join us for the message for all Ages and time of prayer.

Due to the pandemic, we have temporarily discontinued our nursery care for children age 4 and under. However, our downstairs nursery or fellowship hall (where we livestream our worship service) is also available for parent use.

For more information about what to expect in worship, including our current pandemic protocols, please visit our "what to expect page".
