Welcome

Welcome to St. John the Baptist Roman Catholic Church!
Located in the beautiful foothills of the Blue Ridge Mountains in Tryon, NC
and dedicated in October 1911 by Benedictine Abbot Leo Haid, the church has been recently enjoying a renovation so incredible that it could only have been inspired by Divine Providence.

Often people in the hospital are missed becasue they enter as an emergency and we don't always get their name.  With your help we can make sure everyone is taken care of.
