Every year, following the ratification of our Parish Council Elections in November and December, each Clergyman is asked to offer the Oath of Office and conduct Officer Elections. After you have completed the oath and officer electlions, please click the link below to update the names of your Parish Ministry Leadership, including new Parish Council officers.
If your parish elections have not been ratified, please copy the link below and submit once you have received ratification. By completing this information with the online form in the link below, we save time from the old method of you sending us handwritten and typed forms. If you have any questions, please contact Ethel Gjerde, executiveassistant@atlmetropolis.org. Thank you.
On behalf of His Eminence Metropolitan Alexios, I am reminding our Metropollis of Atlanta Clergy that most Fridays of the year are fast days and as such, His Eminence asks that we not schedule weddings on these days. If a critical and extenuating circumstance exists, as the local Priest, please inform the Chancellor in writing and he will review with the Metropolitan and advise you of a final decision. Thank you for your help for us to be consistent with all our couples getting married.

Dear Brother Clergy,
Once your Parish Council elections from December are ratified, we need you or your office assistant to complete the Parish Leadership Information at this link: https://forms.gle/MBFnnjcRD2YdHDPv7). If your elections have not been ratified, please wait until they have and you have elected new Parish Council officers. Thank you. +Fr. George
1. Beginning on this Greek Letters Day, January 30, 2024, Metropolis of Atlanta Clergy are invited to register for our Fall Clergy Retreat scheduled for Tuesday through Thursday, October 22-24, 2024 at the Diakonia Retreat Center in Salem, South Carolina. We are privileged to have as our special presenter, Bishop Themis of Sierra Leone:
His Grace will serve as the Conference Leader for both the Metropolis’s Fall Clergy Retreat, as well as the Conference of the Orthodox Christian Academy of Atlanta, all of which will be held from October 22nd to the 24th. Following this, His Grace will then offer his presentation of theme, “Mercy Without Limits” to several parishes in the Metropolis of Atlanta before he returns to Sierra Leone.
2. The cost to register is $55 for the event and includes meals, handouts, bed linens and towels. Travel expenses are the responsibility of the clergy. Contact Brother Clergy for ride-sharing.
3. For planning purposes, we begin on Tuesday, October 22nd at 2:00 p.m. and conclude on Thursday, October 24th at 3:00 p.m. Kindly schedule your travel plans to ensure you are present and not miss out. Please plan on staying for the entire event.
4. If you have a conflict (it is January 30th), please email the Chancellor using this link as soon as possible. Our retreat schedule is being finalized and will be posted when we confirm our speaker's travel plans later this summer (which are dependent on Federal government approvals for His Grace Bishop Themis' entry from Africa).
