We Are Here to Help
Finding your way around a new place can be intimidating. But no need for stress – we are excited you are coming and are here to help! On Sundays, volunteers are located throughout the campus to help you find your way around. They will be happy to personally take you to any place you’d like to go. On select Sundays, group tours are available, or a staff member can show you around at a day and time that is convenient for you.
Worship - What to Expect
Traditional Worship
8:45 am | Sanctuary
Chapel Communion
10:00 am | Moore Chapel
Traditional Worship
11:15 am | Sanctuary
Most of our worship services take place in the Sanctuary and Chapel. These are located on the 2nd floor facing Peachtree Road.
Our traditional services (8:45 am & 11:15 am) are about 60 minutes and begin with a friendly time of meeting and greeting with clergy, staff and fellow-worshipers. If you would prefer to be in silent thought at this time, that will certainly be respected.
Music will signal the beginning of the worship service. Our traditional services feature organ and choir, and our alternative service features a full band. You can follow the service using the printed bulletin for traditional, and using screens for alternative.
Please wear whatever you like to church. We tend to wear “Sunday best” in our sanctuary services but keep it casual for alternative. There is no requirement for either, but we want you to know what to expect so you feel comfortable in your surroundings.
There are common areas outside of each worship space and bathrooms are located down the halls. If you need a private space for nursing or to make a phone call, our volunteers can guide you to a separate area.
What About Children?
At Peachtree Road, children are MVPs and are valued and nurtured here. We are excited to help them develop their faith in fun ways they can understand. On Sundays, we have care and programs for all children from 6 weeks through 5th grade, as well as entire space and program dedicated to our youth (middle and high school.) Your children are only a text message or a short walk away.
Sunday Morning Nursery
If you have infants or toddlers (6 weeks to 2 years old), our Nursery is a safe, loving environment where they will be cared for by a team of certified caregivers and Peachtree Road volunteers. Sunday morning childcare is offered from 8:30 am to 12:30 pm on the first floor of the Children’s Building located in the back of the church campus. Give yourself a few extra minutes on your first visit to learn about how we check-in children, contact parents and other helpful hints. You can find complete information under “Caring for Our Youngest” on our Children & Families page here.
Sunday School For Children
At the 10:00 Sunday School hour we have age-appropriate programs that encourage curiosity about our faith and connect children with their church friends and mentors. At the 8:30 am & 11:15 am Worship hours, we have interactive learning experiences that get children involved in and excited about how we worship and what it means. You can find complete information under “Especially for Children” on our Children & Families page here.
Campus Buildings
To orient yourself, it is helpful to know that one main hallway connects many of our campus spaces. This hallway runs from the administrative area to worship, recreation, and fellowship and then branches to our education wing and our children’s wing. The same path runs along the first floors and second floors and spans the entire width of our campus buildings with the exception of our youth center.
