Worships

The church said the new calendar of events would include everything the church offers, from weekly Sunday services to concerts and small groups.

Meanwhile, church members will add information on the virtual event's attendance to the event description.

It added that each event is also given to a category, such as "worship," "education," or "Sunday School," which will help with the website's advertising of different activities.

According to the church, the High Museum of Art, Atlanta Design Museum, Union Theater, Atlanta Symphony Orchestra, Atlanta Opera, and other local art organizations are all within walking distance of the First Presbyterian Church.

As a result of these relationships, the church hosts concerts and activities regularly.
