Programs at Raleigh Moravian
Vacation Bible School
VBS is held in the summer and is for three-year-olds through fifth graders. We'll have stories, games, music and crafts - all based on a Biblical theme.
Fellowship dinner
The first Wednesday of each month during the school year is a time of fellowship, learning and good eating! Dinner is served at 6:30 followed by various programs. Reservations are required for dinner. Call the church office, 787-4034, or email our church secretary, Pat Hendley.
Lenten series
Raleigh Moravian celebrates Holy Communion on Ash Wednesday and the first Sunday of Lent. Members of other Christian denominations are welcome to partake at the Lord's Table during these services.
Lent is a time of reflection and renewal. Raleigh Moravian offers classes or programs during this season to encourage members to make time for spiritual devotions.
Programs at Laurel Ridge Moravian Camp and Conference Center
Raleigh Moravian has been blessed with the use of the beautiful Laurel Ridge mountain facility of the Moravian Church. During the summer approximately 20 children and youth participate in the camp programs planned and staffed by Moravians throughout the Southern Province. Our small Bible study groups, the youth group, and the Women's Ministry use the camp for retreats during the fall, winter and spring. The Congregational Retreat is held each year in August.
The Laurel Ridge website has more information about facilities and booking. While you're visiting Laurel Ridge, please say "Hello" to Director Mike Warren and his wife DeAnne for us -- Mike was Raleigh Moravian's Music Director before moving to Laurel Ridge, and DeAnne sang in our Choir!
