The Moravian Church, though small, is a world-wide denomination with a rich history dating back to 1457 in Germany. In an effort to reach others with the Gospel, the Church spread to this continent in the 1740s. The Moravian faith in North America is divided into two provinces – the northern and the southern. With much emphasis on an individual’s faith journey, with a long-standing heritage in music and missions, and a current hope for continuing to grow the Moravian church, we are well-connected within our province.
Listed below are resources to the websites of several organizations, agencies, and endeavors supported by the Moravian Church in America and throughout the world.
Many of our members participate, volunteer, and support the Moravian Church’s camping program at Laurel Ridge Camp and Conference Center. Established in 1961 and located less than 2 hours away in the Blue Ridge Mountains, the camp has many opportunities for personal and group retreat and development. Click here to learn more.

The purpose of the Moravian Music Foundation is to preserve, celebrate, and cultivate the musical life of Moravians. Since the late eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries, Moravians in America fostered musical activities of high quality and rich diversity, with both instrumental and vocals.
