Presbyterian, West Asheville Presbyterian Church Asheville, NC News and Events

New and Events

We have received a $25,000 grant from the Christopher and Dana Reeve Foundation Quality of Life program. This will enable us to proceed with making our Dining Room ADA compliant -- totally accessible to anyone! This will mean new bathrooms that work for people with any physical disability. We also will be installing a wheelchair lift for the 3 steps from the side entrance to the Dining Room Floor.
Not only will this help all the groups currently using our facilities but also allow other groups to use the Dining Room and Kitchen who, up to now, could not because of the situation of some of their members.
Stay tuned for progress reports.

AA review of West Asheville Pres that appeared in Yelp.com

2/10/2012

My wife and I were thinking of relocating to Asheville from San Francisco so we took some time to go there over the holidays this winter. We wanted to check out a local church and we really liked West Asheville Pres.

The congregation seemed lovely, everyone was very welcoming but we happened to go to was on New Years Day, so there weren't that many people at the service, which I'm sure was a symptom of the new years festivities.

The sermon was clear and meaningful and the pastor even delved into some ancient greek for the term "we would have been happy if..." which is always insightful.

The music was outstanding, we met one of the women that runs the music there, she had played an exotic string instrument that I can't recall the name of, but it was great.

I don't think that Asheville is in the cards for us yet, but if we did move there, this would be our church.
