Atlanta Mennonite Church

Coffee, hot chocolate, and homemade King cake were provided after worship today as we inaugurated our new coffee bar! The "kings" were those who found the bean in their piece of King cake.

Watershed Witness:

Today, members of ATL Menno joined with some of our land partners from The Language Garden to help restore our property’s woodlands. It was a lovely day caring for creation and strengthening community ties. Good things are happening at 1088!

A WATERSHED WITNESS

Today, our interim co-pastor, Anton Flores-Maisonet, and Dio Arauz, co-pastor of Ministerio Jehova Luz Esperanza, our sister congregation, delivered impassioned speeches at the steps of the State Capitol. This gathering of faith leaders was in observance of World Day Against the Death Penalty and was organized in collaboration with Georgians For Alternatives to the Death Penalty and Faith Leaders of Color Coalition.

Join us on Saturday, October 28, for an outdoor concert in the ATL Menno pumpkin patch. Deidre McCalla - Singer/Songwriter is an incredible artist that you won't want to miss.

It should also be peak foliage, so the setting will be glorious.

This morning, our interim co-pastor Anton Flores-Maisonet was the guest preacher at Immanuel Mennonite Church in Harrisonburg, VA. Exciting things are happening at Immanuel, but there's excitement anytime we know God is with us!

You can enjoy the whole service or go to the 40-minute mark to watch Anton's sermon.

This past weekend, ATL Menno joined with over 50 folks from six faith communities and six countries at Koinonia Farm. It was a wonderful time of reflecting how each of the faith communities is seeking to live in solidarity with immigrants.

Members of Garifuna & Haitian congregations, representatives of Koinonia Farm, and three Central District Conference Mennonite congregations came together to discern how to be more faithful witnesses of God’s beloved community.

The weekend culminated with a multilingual service and lunch at Americus Mennonite Fellowship where friends seeking asylum shared their testimonies.
