Faith, NC Overview

Best known for its extravagant and popular Independence Day celebration, the small community known as Faith was incorporated around the turn of the century in 1903. Although the town is home to less than 1,000 residents, its lavish Fourth of July festivities stretch over an entire week to include thrill rides, live entertainment, musical concerts, a lively parade, and the culmination of a dazzling fireworks display.  Local lore explains the unusual name of the town from a story about a newspaper columnist who settled into the area to open a quarry on the rocky terrain.  With no experience in the quarry business, he said that he was moving forward on “faith.”  New residents to Faith will find a close-knit community spirit that reflects decades of small-town living and stable residential neighborhoods.  Neighbors in Faith know each other by name, wave from front porches, and stop to chat on evening walks.
