RPC, in conjuction with the Presbytery of Greater Atlanta and the Tri-Presbytery New Church
Development Commission, works with new church development.
The formation of new churches in the Presbyterian Church (USA) is a multi-faceted task. The heart of
our mission is to reach people with the saving gospel of Jesus Christ. This implies a primary mission
responsibility for persons outside of Christ’s Church. Of parallel importance is the nurture, training,
and deployment of experienced Christians for service both within and outside the church. This is a
critical distinction if we are to succeed.
The Presbyterian Joint Commission for New Church Development for Cherokee, Greater Atlanta, and
Northeast Georgia Presbyteries was created in May, 2000, through action taken by each presbytery.
Since that time, the Joint Commission has worked to develop policies and procedures for new church
development while at the same time supporting the work of new church developments
