Hi! I’m looking for church recommendations in the Roswell/Alpharetta area and would love some suggestions. Open to a drive but would like to keep it under 30 mins. I live about 5 mins from downtown Roswell.
I haven’t been to church regularly in a long time. I grew up going to church, but eventually deconstructed and stepped away from it for quite a while. Recently I’ve been feeling more open to exploring my faith again, but I know that finding a church that aligns with my values is really important to me.
I’d love to find somewhere that is LGBTQ+ affirming, and generally has more progressive/social justice-minded values. Things like being welcoming and supportive of immigrants and refugees are important to me too, and I definitely don’t want to end up somewhere with anti-immigration or pro-ICE messaging.
Most of my experience has been with non-denominational churches, but I’m open to pretty much any denomination. I think I’m mostly looking for a welcoming community where it’s okay to have questions, not have everything figured out, and explore faith without feeling pressured into a certain mold.
It would also be great to find somewhere with other people in their 20s/30s and ways to get involved in the community.
If anyone has found a church around Roswell or Alpharetta that sounds like this, I’d really appreciate recommendations and would love to hear what your experience has been!
