New Traffic Patterns

Due to the construction of the Good Faith Chapel, the Andrews Drive driveway will be one-way only into the parking lot on weekends. All cars will exit the parking lot at Peachtree Road, and traffic patterns will change inside the parking lot to get all cars out as efficiently as possible.

On weekdays, the Andrews Drive driveway will be closed in both directions. All cars will enter and exit at Peachtree Road; pedestrians can access the Cathedral campus from Andrews Drive via the stone path at the Lanier House or a new sidewalk leading to Mikell Chapel. 

We have worked with the Georgia Department of Transportation to change the traffic light timing at Peachtree Road. As always, please drive slow, use courtesy, and exercise patience. Thank you!

Each Sunday service of worship at the Cathedral includes the Holy Eucharist, also called Holy Communion or the Lord’s Supper, the principal act of worship on the Lord’s Day. The structure of Word and Sacrament features a sermon and an opportunity for the congregation to receive Christ. 

7:45 a.m.

A consistent community meets in Mikell Chapel, the oldest structure in the Cathedral, at 7:45 a.m. for a traditional liturgy without music. The service is quiet and meditative. 

8:45 a.m.

The 8:45 a.m. Eucharist presents the splendor of the Christian faith, with music, prayers, and sermons that draw upon the finest sources of our Anglican tradition. During this service, we also offer a special Children’s Chapel for children ages 4 through 5th grade.

11:15 a.m. 

The 11:15 a.m. Eucharist presents the splendor of the Christian faith in its most glorious Anglican fashion. Our music, prayers, and sermons draw upon the finest sources of our tradition. In addition to scripture lessons, this service includes a sung psalm. 

11:15 a.m. en Español

This Spanish-language service gathers in Mikell Chapel and is led by Deacon Juan Sandoval and other Cathedral clergy. Esta es una Santa Eucaristía, dando la bienvenida a la comunidad hispana a la Catedral y proveyendo a la población hispana de Atlanta un lugar seguro y amoroso de fe y tradición. ¡Todos son bienvenidos! All are welcome at this service!

4:00 p.m. (September–May)

One of the jewels of the Anglican tradition, Choral Evensong is the English Reformation’s fusion of the ancient evening prayer services of Vespers and Compline. Occasionally a classically sung Choral Eucharist, or a diocesan confirmation, or a service of Lessons and Carols takes the place of Evensong. 

Children are welcome at all services at the Cathedral, but the Nurturing Center is open Sundays from 8:30 a.m. – 1:00 p.m. for children 4 and under.

 

Weekday services of Holy Eucharist take place in St. Mary's Chapel, upstairs from the Atrium, Monday–Friday at 12:15 p.m. Friday services include Healing Service. 

 

From the Very Rev. Sam Candler, Dean of the Cathedral: “At the time of the Offertory of the Eucharist, we ask worshipers to offer whatever you have to God. And each of us has something to offer. Musicians offer music! Those with money offer money. Sometimes we offer our joy and happiness. Sometimes all we have are pain and sorrow to offer. Every one of those offerings is accepted by God. During our Offertories, we offer to God whatever is available to us. Then, when the celebrant prays the Eucharistic Prayer, God blesses all those offerings, wherever they are. And they are very spread out these days! But God blesses them. Then, when we usually receive those offerings back, in communion with the consecrated Body and Blood of Christ, we do receive communion, just in a different way. Wherever we are, we receive back whatever God makes available to us, in whatever form God makes available to us at that time and in that place. Thus, we share spiritual communion.”
