Our Mission

The Atlanta Church of Christ East is devoted to meeting the needs of our fellowship and our community. To accomplish this, we look to the examples of the first century followrs of Jesus.

"They devoted themselves to the apostles' teaching and to the fellowship, to the breaking of bread and to prayer. Everyone was filled with awe, and many wonders and miraculous signs were done by the apostles.All the believers were together and had everything in common. Selling their possessions and goods, they gave to anyone as he had need. Every day they continued to meet together in the temple courts. They broke bread in their homes and ate together with glad and sincere hearts, praising God and enjoying the favor of all the people. And the Lord added to their number daily those who were being saved."
Acts 2:42-47
  • We are devoted to Jesus' teachings.
  • We are devoted to prayer.
  • We are devoted to one another.
  • We are devoted to helping people come into a saved relationship with God.
  • We remember Jesus' sacrifice.
  • By holding to this simple foundation, we will share in the same fellowship as the earlier believers.
