The Role: Campus Pastor 

Meet Brookstone Church:

Brookstone Church, formerly North Asheville Baptist Church, has long stood as a testimony to God’s faithfulness since our church was called into existence in 1910. First located on Forsythe Street in North Asheville, the church was a satellite of First Baptist Church of Asheville. NABC grew in membership and influenced the community with the gospel of Christ.​

​In 2001, the church fellowship moved into a multi-purpose building on the same site. The original brick building now houses Reynolds Mountain Christian Academy, established in 1999 as a ministry of NABC, originally under the name North Asheville Christian School. ​

On Easter Sunday, 2017, after 106 years under the same name, North Asheville Baptist Church officially became Brookstone Church in anticipation of our upcoming move to a new, 100-acre campus in Weaverville. The church celebrated Opening Day at its new location on November 12, 2017. This new campus will enable our church family to reach thousands of people with the Good News of God’s love for them in Christ! Moving forward, we will have space for an ever-expanding ministry, including an ample worship space, conference facilities, classrooms, counseling ministries, a community park, gymnasium, worship pavilions, prayer walks, and much more! This is all with the ultimate goal of serving our community and equipping God’s people of all ages to live intentionally daily.

What it's Like to Live in Asheville, NC: 

North of Asheville sits the unique, scenic town of Weaverville, North Carolina, home to entrepreneurs and artisans alike. With a thriving downtown district offering an array of businesses and plenty of parking, Weaverville draws visitors from all around to its quaint, picturesque Main Street and lush public spaces. Living in Weaverville offers the best of all worlds: quiet country living just a stone's throw from a thriving in-town commercial district, with a 15-minute drive to Downtown Asheville.

In the 1800s, Weaverville was home to grand hotels with visitors escaping the heat of southern summers. Author O. Henry spent some of his last days here, regaining his health before returning to New York City. Today, Main Street offers a lot for visitors with some impressive restaurants, galleries, and artist studios. And it's only ten minutes from both downtown Asheville and the Blue Ridge Parkway.

Residents and visitors to Weaverville can enjoy two public parks within its jurisdiction: Lake Louise Park and the Main Street Nature Park. Well-maintained areas prized for passive recreation, the parks offer walking paths lined with volunteer-maintained flower beds and educational information celebrating Weaverville's rich heritage.
