Moravia Moravian Church

About this church

Moravia Moravian Church offers Sunday School at 10:00 a.m. and worship at 11:00 at 2920 Oak Ridge Road in Oak Ridge. Worship is traditional and liturgical, often drawing from the Moravian Book of Worship, with singing, prayer, confession, fellowship, Scripture, and a message. The congregation practices open Communion, welcoming everyone who confesses Christ as Lord. This published sequence lets visitors choose the education hour, the service, or both.

Moravia traces its beginning to the Sandy Plains Sunday School and its founding in 1896. The present church building hosted its first worship gathering at a Christmas Eve Lovefeast in 1964; a 2003 expansion added a larger kitchen and the Hearthside Room for fellowship. That history remains visible in congregational life today. Along with worship, Sunday School, and Bible study, members gather to make chicken pies, share monthly meals, create crafts, and join local outreach. The church summarizes its calling as loving God, living in community, and serving neighbors in the Oak Ridge and Summerfield area. For someone new to the Moravian tradition, the official site explains both the structured character of worship and the warm, participatory life surrounding it, including its distinctive Lovefeast history and service-oriented gatherings.
