A warm welcome to all!

Greetings! We extend to you the hospitality of Jesus. We would be delighted to have you seek God with us and to join us in the worship and service of this great Cathedral in the city of Atlanta. The Cathedral of St. Philip is a house of prayer for all people and we welcome all.

Please join us on Sunday! Once you've entered our parking lot at the intersection of Peachtree and Rumson Roads, come into the building through the covered drop-off area, fill out a nametag at the table just inside and then look for a volunteer in a green apron to direct you to the service or a Sunday School class, depending on the time of day. To be contacted by a clergy or staff person, return a visitor card from the pew.

Also, see the Visitors' Center at the National Church website for an overview of traditions in the Episcopal Church. If you have questions about St. Philip's, please contact Mary Stuart Hall, 404-365-1079.

Membership

Baptized Members All baptized persons, of any age (including children), whose names are enrolled either by baptism, letter of transfer, or personal request. Adults can have their names enrolled as Baptized Members, but still not be Confirmed Communicants.
