Providence's format for the 8:30 am worship service continues:

In 2010, after many months of research, prayer, interviews, and sharing, the Worship Strategy Team of the Deacons recommended that a different worship format be included in the church's worship experiences.  In lieu of scheduling another worship time, the decision was made to re-format the "early" Sunday worship experience.  This service has experienced Increased attendance during the past year.  You are invited to attend this service every Sunday in the sanctuary at 8:30 am.

To help with this endeavor, the talents of Noel Friedline was secured to assist with the worship experience. The music team, consisting of singers and instrumentalists, is composed of Providence members and coordinated by our Minister of Music, Carey Cannon.

Our traditional worship format is observed at the 11:00 am worship service.  This service is also held in the Sanctuary.  We invite you to worship with us.

Providence Baptist Church began in 1954 with a group of young families who had moved to the Cotswold community of south Charlotte.  At that time, Randolph Road was only two lanes, but houses were being built and those first families saw the potential for the development of this area of Charlotte and the need for a church.
