Central Neighbors Parishes + Coordinators

parish_pool_partyCentral Neighbors was formed to provide members with opportunities to build community and receive and provide pastoral care within nine geographical "parishes" located throughout metro Atlanta. Each member becomes a member of a parish when he or she joins the church.

Typically, parishes come together for social gatherings, service opportuniities, support when a new baby is born, when someone is ill, or someone dies.  Annually, parishes gather in members' homes to mark Maundy Thursday by sharing a potluck meal and worship.  Our deacons work closely with parish coordinators, particularly in response to  pastoral concerns.
