The Regional Council of Churches of Atlanta was created as Atlanta Preachers’ Meeting over a century ago by an ecumenical group of clergy in response to community need best addressed collectively by a diverse group of churches. The Council continues to be led by clergy and to be used by them for community response to issues of justice, reconciliation, and want. It also continues to enable lively, generative, unified Christian leadership where clergy whose forms of worship may differ respond to the same gospel.
