Northside Drive Baptist Church

Administrative Assistant (part-time)

Founded in 1952 in the Buckhead neighborhood of Atlanta, Northside Drive Baptist Church (NDBC) is a congregation of approximately 350 members. It is affiliated with the Cooperative Baptist Fellowship and the Alliance of Baptists. At NDBC we try to live out the core values of being inclusive, inquiring, and involved. We believe God calls us into the Christian community with the challenge to discern and act upon the ongoing revelation of God in our time and place. We live out this vision by being a church rooted deeply in liturgical traditions, where intergen-erational friendships are valued, all members can be known by name, open-mindedness is the basis of spiritual formation, resources are shared generously, and where hands-on service is crucial to our own discipleship and the mission of Christ in the world.
