East Avenue Tabernacle Associate Reformed Presbyterian Church, also known as the Great Aunt Stella Center, is a historic Associate Reformed Presbyterian church located at 927 Elizabeth Street in Charlotte, Mecklenburg County, North Carolina. It was designed by architect James M. McMichael in a Classical Revival style. It consists of a two-story sanctuary, built in 1914, and a four-story educational wing added to the south side of the sanctuary in 1925. The sanctuary has a Greek cross plan with a central octagon with shallow two-story wings that terminate in low parapeted walls. The sanctuary is topped by a copper dome and has a monumental porch with a brick pediment. In 1998 East Avenue Tabernacle merged with the Craig Avenue Associated Reformed Presbyterian Church and the building houses a community center and charter school.[2]

It was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 2005.[1]
