About this church
Mt. Moriah Evangelical Lutheran Church is a China Grove congregation organized in 1824, with a log worship building completed by 1840 and the present brick-and-steel church dedicated in 1929. Sunday School begins at 9:15 a.m. and worship at 10:30, with livestreams and recordings available on YouTube. Communion is normally celebrated on first Sundays and special occasions; a nonalcoholic alternative is available. Children leave for Children’s Church after the children’s message. The annual worship calendar includes Lent, Holy Week, Easter, Pentecost, Reformation, Thanksgiving, Christmas, healing services, homecoming, and worship in the park.
Sunday School serves ages two through adult, beginning with children’s music before age-group classes. Coffee is available in the fellowship hall from 8:30 to 10 a.m. GodSquad for kindergarten through fifth grade is published for fourth Sundays from 3 to 4 p.m. in the Building Out Back, while middle- and high-school youth pages list first and third Sundays from 2 to 3 p.m. Some dated event examples remain on those pages, so families should confirm the current calendar. The wooded campus includes a playground, nature trail, picnic shelter, youth and family center, chapel, classrooms, and fellowship areas. Other ministries include quilters, Lutheran Men in Mission, women, seniors, music, education, disaster response, hunger relief, and marriage enrichment. Public pages do not specify dress, accessibility, secure child check-in, or volunteer screening.
