During worship, visitors may provide their names, addresses and phone numbers on the Friendship Pads which are passed along the pews. Every Monday evening, a group of church members call all first-time visitors. Those who return several times to our church receive personal visits from a church member or one of our pastors.

Membership Information

We welcome all who profess Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior to become members of the congregation of First Presbyterian Church of Atlanta. Members are received by the Session on profession of faith, reaffirmation of faith, or by letter from another congregation. Usually people join the church during a special communion service which is held in Winship Chapel just before the regular Session meetings in the months of January, March, April, June, August, September, and November. Those who have not been baptized may receive this sacrament during the special service. New members are also invited to dinner before the service where they are introduced to the Session.
