A Homestead for Faith and Civic Duty
These mountains bring us together, in faith and in civic duty to all. If you are seeking to rekindle either spirit, you have found a new home. Unicoi County is dotted with old time churches that serve multi-generational families of the faithful and welcome new visitors. Some are quaintly nestled within a hollow, while others are majestic in their architecture and stand proudly along tree lined streets. Our community’s doors are open to you in your pursuit of faith or your passion to serve others through a civic organization.
From its founding, faith and civic duty have been prominent in Unicoi County. From the early pioneers and ministers on horseback, through the Civil War and the World Wars, right up to today, visitors and residents have been welcome to join and participate in faithful pursuits of religion and civic duty.
