In the last third of the 20th century, two Charlotte, North Carolina, Presbyterian churches -- Camp Greene Presbyterian Church and Wilmore Presbyterian Church -- united to form Christ Presbyterian Church.

Camp Greene Presbyterian Church was organized on April 12, 1931, with 43 charter members. Located at the corner of Wilkinson Boulevard and Monument Street, Camp Greene was the result of a Sunday Church School begun in May of 1926 in a building at the corner of Wilkinson Boulevard and what is now Ashley Road. The name "Camp Greene" perpetuated the title of the United States Army Cantonment that was located in the area during World War I (1917-1918).

The Wilmore Presbyterian Church was organized on November 1, 1914, with 28 charter members. It was the outgrowth of a Mission School begun in January of 1913 at the corner of Bland and Mint Streets in the Wilmore neighborhood. The church began a chapel in April of 1948, which later became the McQuay Presbyterian Church. In November of 1948, the Wilmore Church held its first service in a new Sanctuary on West Park Avenue.

On December 14, 1969, the Camp Greene and Wilmore churches officially became Christ Presbyterian Church -- thereby combining the rich talents, traditions, and spirits of two congregations into one. Now, we forge ahead into the 21st century, continuing our mission of coming together and reaching out in Christ. When you come for a visit, you will learn that we are large enough to minister to your spiritual needs and small enough that you will never be lost in the crowd.
