Where We Serve: Atlanta

Quick Facts

Life in the City

Atlanta is a great place to go out to a relaxing dinner or to paint the town (or both). From hanging out at the Vortex in eclectic Little Five Points or chatting on the patio at Neighbors to dancing the night away in Buckhead, there’s something for everybody in this city.

Atlanta

The Atlanta community is all about choices: various places of worship, diverse social opportunities, and an array of shopping, entertainment, and sporting events. And, thanks to the Hartsfield International Airport, Atlanta is only two hours away from 80 percent of the United States.

Our community is lucky enough to live in a perfect 3-bedroom, 2-bath house in residential Atlanta. In addition to a breakfast area and living room, we have a large “rumpus” room (mostly used for grading and relaxing) that is perfect for hosting any ACEr who misses their connecting flight at Hartsfield-Jackson Airport. Our handy landlord lives just next door, our parish is 5 minutes up the street, and I-85 is spitting distance from our house.
