Welcome!

If you are visiting with us for the first time, please know that you are welcome here, and that we are delighted to have you learn more about us through our website.

The Church of the Incarnation is a warm and welcoming Christian community which has gathered in Highlands, NC since 1879. There are countless reasons why people have made their way to Incarnation, but ultimately we find our common direction as we learn to live and grow in the love of Jesus Christ. It is my deep hope that you encounter something holy, beautiful, and life-changing in this place, that draws you closer to God and to others.

If you are looking for a church home or would like to learn more about Incarnation, please don’t hesitate to contact us directly by phone (828) 526-2968 or email incarnation@incarnationwnc.org.

Ways to Worship

Sunday Worship

On Sundays, we celebrate two services of Holy Eucharist.

  • 8:00 a.m. – A quiet, contemplative service using Rite I from the Book of Common Prayer, rooted in the beauty of traditional language.

  • 10:30 a.m. – A Rite II service with full choir, hymns, and sermon. This is our principal act of worship and includes processions, incense on feast days, and the rich ceremonial tradition of the Anglican heritage.

Weekday Worship

We offer Morning Prayer Monday through Thursday at 8:30 a.m. in the church—a simple and peaceful way to begin the day in Scripture and prayer. On Wednesdays at noon, we celebrate a Healing Eucharist, which includes prayers for healing and the laying on of hands for those who desire it.
