🙏🏽Endurance in Faith: Remember, the essence of triumphant church planting lies in unwavering persistence. Keep advancing, even when obstacles arise. Your resilience, as echoed in Galatians 6:9 - 'And let us not grow weary of doing good, for in due season we will reap, if we do not give up,' will bring forth abundant blessings.

We wish you all a Merry Christmas and happy new year.

Congratulations Presbytery of Greater Atlanta! After years of work that persevered despite a global pandemic, we have several new worshiping communities working to charter within the next 12 – 18 months. Toward that end, we are offering a Founder’s Cohort, designed for key leaders of each church who intend to charter.

We kick off our cohort with an overnight retreat August 9-10. If you are looking to charter soon and have not yet connected on this, reach out to NCDC’s Executive Director Lindsay Armstrong.

We want every new worshiping community leader to flourish in their work and their lives. Regardless of how things go for your new worshiping community, our hope is that you’ll see this season of your life as one in which you experienced growth personally, spiritually, and vocationally.

The Discerning Missional Leadership assessment is designed to help you identify your path for flourishing.

We are excited to announce that we will be holding the remaining DML events in person! The first gathering will take place in Decatur, GA, Oct 9, 2023.
