After conducting Sunday afternoon services at Eastside Baptist Church since its inception in 2019, East Cobb Church is relocating to space for worship on Sunday mornings.
The congregation of North Point Ministries has announced that starting Nov. 12, it will be meeting at Fellowship Christian School in Roswell.
Specific times for the services and other activities are still to be determined.
“We recognize that meeting for church on Sunday afternoons is not optimal for most people in our community,” the church announced on its website, adding that Fellowship Christian—located at 10965 Woodstock Road—”is much closer to our property where we are building our permanent home.”
It’s been nearly two years since North Point was granted rezoning approval for the 33-acre site at Johnson Ferry and Shallowford Road for the church, retail and a residential development.
North Point sold roughly 20 acres of that assemblage to a residential developer, and in March, was granted a land disturbance permit for church construction.
East Cobb Church said that it is hoping to have a groundbreaking for the 125,000-square-foot church and parking lot “later in 2023” but was no more specific than that.
The first task on the North Point property has been dam reconstruction and relocating Waterfront Drive that has been underway since the spring.
The church project is expected to be completed in two years. Updates can be found by clicking here.
