"The mission of the Presbyterian Church of Floyd is to be witnesses to the Christian faith as proclaimed in the Bible through weekly worship, Church School, group Bible study and fellowship meetings, and in outreach to the community."

The Presbyterian Church of Floyd (PCOF) is home to an active and multi-generational congregation family, and through education, worship and service, seeks to explore and deepen one's personal relationship to Christ. PCOF is also an active witness within the Floyd community, contributing volunteer time in different levels of service and financial support through the PCOF Stewardship Committee.

Recent History
In the 1960's, the Montgomery Presbytery (now Presbytery of the Peaks) recommended that the Presbyterian witness in the Floyd area could be better served by a consolidation of the four congregations: Dillon's Chapel, Harvestwood, Harris-Cannaday, and Floyd Presbyterian Church.

After a pilot study done locally, the congregations merged and a new church - The Presbyterian Church of Floyd - was organized on February 12, 1967. Dillon's Chapel, Harvestwood, and Harris-Cannaday closed that same year as part of the consolidation process.

The site for the new church building was located a few feet from the original parsonage and Oxford Academy. Under the leadership of Reverend Robert Link, plans for the new building were agreed upon, and construction began in the summer of 1973. A final service was held at the old church building on September 1, 1974.

On September 8, 1974, the first service was held in the new building, the current site of the Presbyterian Church of Floyd.
