A HISTORIC CAMPUS, SHARED BY ALL OF US.
Our Story
Galilee Ministries of East Charlotte began in 2015 as a special mission of the Episcopal Diocese of North Carolina. We believe a neighborhood grows stronger when there's a place where everyone belongs. So, we keep our doors open. Through the generosity of supporters across Charlotte, we share our buildings and grounds, free or at a small fee, with groups doing good work in East Charlotte and beyond. What happens here grows and changes with the needs of our neighbors, from learning and wellness to faith, food, and celebration.
Longtime residents and newcomers of all ages and walks of life gather here side by side. Every one of us who walks through these doors makes this neighborhood a little more like home.
Our Mission
Build a stronger East Charlotte community by welcoming, connecting, and empowering collaborations in a space of belonging.
Our Vision
An East Charlotte community where all people are rooted in connection, celebrate justice, radiate joy, are filled with abundance, and walk in the way of love.
