About Atlanta 

The Atlanta vibe of radical hospitality permeates a residential setting for the ATL Zacchaeus Fellows.  Following in the faith and footsteps of those who walked here before us, we are all about restoration of authenticity, relationship, justice, and honoring giftedness. 

 

Atlanta, a city of over 6 Million, houses many cultural communities.  Clarkston, one of 9 global Refugee Resettlements, is a vibrant part of greater Atlanta.  It is known as the most diverse square mile in America, where fifty nationalities’ religions, politics, cultures, and lifestyles interrelate to build a rich community. Atlanta is a place of “story” with corridors of the city undergoing efforts to preserve our rich Latinx and Asian heritage.
