Cornerstone Centennial

In 2026, St. Philip’s celebrates the 100th anniversary of the laying of the cornerstone of our church building.

So far, this celebration has included a 50’s potluck dinner and family game night, an art exhibit, an auction fundraiser benefitting two local camps for children, a special service of Choral Evensong.

In August, we gathered for “Historically Speaking,” a special weekend of learning and prayer with author Craig Gralley and the Reverend Elise Johnstone, exploring the early history of the Episcopal Church in Transylvania County.

Coming soon: A day of history tours to local sites on September 26, and the Bishop’s Celebration, an evening with the Rt. Rev. José McLoughlin on October 17.
