Providence Church began on September 24, 2007 when a group of individuals from First Presbyterian Church in Waynesville, North Carolina, met to determine the interest in forming an Evangelical Presbyterian Church in Haywood County. In a matter of days, Providence Church took on a name, became a mission church of Montreat Presbyterian Church - EPC, and called a pastor, Josh Cole.

On January 13, 2008 Providence became a “particular” church in the EPC with 72 charter members. No longer a mission church to Montreat Presbyterian Church, Providence is a member church of the Presbytery of the Southeast.

In August 2008, Providence moved to its present location, the Haywood Christian Academy Senior Campus in Clyde.  We are excited about the future that God has in store for this fellowship.
