On 22 April 2001, a group of our members shared a tremendously fulfilling and immensely fascinating experience: we boarded a bus and visited several of the sites that the Atlanta First Christian Church has called home over the course of our 150-year history. Please ride along with us as we go back to almost 1900.
Below are a selection of thumbnail photos of the trip; please click on any of the thumbnails to see a full-screen image. In commemoration of our Triple Jubilee, I will be posting additional photos from our historical archives as they become available.
Boarding the Bus... | "Who had the ham sandwich?" |

Briarcliff sanctuary, looking forward... | ...looking to the rear |
by a vibrant Christian community. We would like to express our thanks and appreciation to the Atlanta Metropolitan Cathedral for being such gracious hosts. | |
We were a lot younger last time we did this... | Some fond memories, then back to the bus |
This was Pryor Street in the early 1900s | ...and this is what it looks like now |
