Tom Key at Peachtree
Each week during the Further Up and Further In series, Peachtree has hosted acclaimed Atlanta actor, director, and playwright, Tom Key. Please thank Mr. Key for delivering a powerful, dramatic reading from The Chronicles of Narnia series of novels in our Sunday worship services during the past seven weeks.
If your young child needs attention during worship, live broadcasts of each service are available in the Williams Center and the Nursing Mothers & Infants Room off the Williams Center.
