Mission & Values
We are God’s beloved community of diverse and vibrant Disciple congregations making a difference locally and globally for Christ (Ephesians 3:16-21).
We are one of 31 Regional Churches within the Christian Church (Disciples of Christ) in the U.S. and Canada. As part of our denomination, we strive to strengthen and support the Disciples congregations within our region, the Christian Church in Georgia. The relationship between the national church (sometimes called the General Church), Regional Churches, and congregations within our denomination is a covenantal one. Together we claim “We are Disciples of Christ, a movement for wholeness in a fragmented world. As part of the one body of Christ, we welcome all to the Lord’s Table as God has welcomed us.” Learn more about the Disciples of Christ.
