Church of the Apostles (Atlanta)

The church was founded in 1987 by Michael Youssef, who left Egypt to attend college in Australia and later immigrated to the United States in 1977.

The church was started by Youssef and 28 people who held a meeting in a local school in 1987.

[2] In 2006 at least 3,000 people attended services in the $70 million brick building, then recently completed.

In addition to the main sanctuary, the facility also includes a 450-seat chapel, fellowship hall, classrooms, administrative space and a parking garage.

The site (just south of Nancy Creek) was the location of the old Allstate Insurance office building.
