NOTICE:
In light of the dramatic spike and alarming spread of COVID-19 variants and the resulting increase in cases in the state of Tennessee, and in an abundance of care for those who are not yet or cannot be vaccinated, the Cumberland Presbyterian Denominational Center will remain closed to the public until February 7, 2022. However, our offices are open to Center staff and all of our regular services to the denomination continue normally. Staff continue to monitor their voicemail and e-mail. Cumberland Presbyterian Resources services orders as normal although there may be pandemic related delays with postal delivery.
For a staff directory or in the event of an emergency, please contact 901-276-4572.
We encourage you to stay safe, wash your hands, wear a mask, and please take care of the people God places in your path.
