We are excited to share that at the congregational meeting on Sunday, December 7, North Avenue Presbyterian Church voted to welcome Rev. Dr. Chris Holmes as our new Senior Pastor!

Chris will be coming to us from First Presbyterian Church Atlanta. He has been involved in teaching and preaching the Word at First Presbyterian Church for the past six years as the Chief Ministry Officer and John H. Stembler Jr. Scholar in Residence and Director of Biblical and Theological Education. 

Chris will begin his ministry with us on January 5th, 2026.  We are thrilled to welcome Chris to NAPC and to enjoy his steady and thoughtful leadership for years to come. We joyfully anticipate what God has in store for NAPC!

Our Current Focus

North Avenue is in a season of transition as we seek a new Pastor. To help us see the NEW thing God is doing (Isaiah 43:19) at North Avenue, officers and staff invite the congregation to lean into our NEW focus areas. These are ways of being during this interim season, so we are open to being transformed for what God has in store for our next chapter. You can click HERE  to learn more about our three areas of focus: Nurturing Spiritual Formation to grow deeper in our relationships with God.  Engaging the Congregation to share our gifts and passions. Welcoming Community Connections, both locally and globally.

Our Values, and Approach

North Avenue is organized under 4 primary pillars: serve, care, grow, and worship. You can click HERE to learn more about these pillars and our vision and values. Alternatively, you can click on the icons below to learn more about the outworking of each pillar.

Desta Ethiopian Kitchen is my favorite restaurant! I recommend it because it’s different from typical American cuisine and has menu options that cater to a variety of preferences. The food is always fresh and tasty. I love the potent and savory flavors. The food is not just good it’s Instagram post worthy. Any family can enjoy the delicious sharable portions served here!
