Peachtree Christian Church

What Peachtree Christian Church does

Peachtree Christian Church is a private, non-profit Disciples of Christ congregation founded in 1925 and headquartered in a Gothic Revival sanctuary at 1580 Peachtree Street NW in Midtown Atlanta, recognized by the National Register of Historic Places. The church delivers two in-person Sunday worship services (9am Chapel and 11am Sanctuary), livestreams the 11am service globally via YouTube and Facebook, and operates a Wednesday Zoom midweek prayer gathering. Its ministry portfolio spans children's, youth, young adult, senior, and adult education programs; small groups distributed across metro Atlanta; an outreach grant program supporting roughly fifteen community partners addressing hunger, housing, refugee resettlement, and elder care; and the Complex Creatures podcast.

The organization monetizes primarily through member tithes, offerings, and annual pledges, supplemented by wedding venue rentals (Chapel at $3,200, Sanctuary at $4,600) and a paid adult respite program, the Legacy Club, launched in March 2023 at $50 per day plus a $75 application fee. Technology infrastructure is intentionally lightweight: the Church Center platform handles event registration, group enrollment, online giving, and volunteer signup; Squarespace hosts the marketing site; Zoom supports virtual gatherings; and YouTube/Facebook provide livestream and on-demand access. There are no proprietary software products, mobile apps, or API surfaces.

Governance is vested in a lay board under Senior Minister Rev. Dr. Jarrod Longbons, the church's sixth senior minister, with an ordained staff of five additional ministers and directors overseeing children's ministry, youth, music, facilities, and congregational care. The church supports 251-500 staff and volunteers, has no parent company, no subsidiaries, and is funded entirely by contributions rather than institutional investment. Geographic operations are concentrated in the Southeast US, with limited global ministry reach through partner organizations.
