The Aveleigh Mission as the Body of Christ: to reflect the Light, Life, and Love of Jesus the Christ in the Newberry Community and beyond in the power and guidance of God’s Spirit in the tone of the Reformed Presbyterian Tradition.

Who We Are

Nestled in a gem of a community of about 13,000 is Aveleigh Presbyterian Church in Newberry, South Carolina. Aveleigh is a place of blessing “where laughter comes easy and hard times are shared, where kindness is valued and love is never spared.”

We are a praying church formed in 1835. Our congregation is a loving family of 125 members with abiding hearts living in the Lordship of Jesus Christ. We appreciate the reality of God’s Holy Spirit in Aveleigh’s ministry. Our hearts are of one purpose in our Lord Jesus Christ to please and glorify God in our faith and obedience to His Will and Word. Aveleigh is known as a Spirit filled, loving, family church in our community.

Newberry is in a county of approximately 32,000 residents located on I-26 between Greenville / Spartanburg and Columbia. We are a loving Christian community blessed with our own community hospital, the restored Newberry 1882 Opera House, a strong K-12 educational system as well as Newberry College and Piedmont Technical College The community still enjoys gathering in historic downtown Newberry for the Christmas Tree Lighting, Memorial Day, and Veteran’s Day Parades. We have a Saturday morning farmer’s market and our own community 1240 radio station on which area churches’ worship services are regularly broadcast.

We strongly believe people are drawn to Christ’s Body in the sharing of God’s Love and Word. The simple Love and Truth of Scripture is important to the Aveleigh family. We believe that God’s Holy Spirit does the transforming of the heart. So our purpose as the Body of Christ is to love, support, share, pray, and encourage each other to share our God-given gifts with others.
