Шаблон:Use American English Шаблон:Use mdy dates Шаблон:Add referencesШаблон:Infobox church The Cathedral of Saint Philip, also known as St. Philip's Cathedral or St. Philip's is an Episcopal cathedral in the U.S. State of Georgia, in the City of Atlanta. Located on Peachtree Road in Buckhead (Atlanta) at what is popularly called "Jesus Junction". St. Philip's has become one of the largest Episcopal congregations in the United States, with a membership of approximately 7,000. St. Philip's is named in honor of St. Philip the Evangelist, a deacon in the early Christian Church. The Cathedral of St. Philip is the seat of the Episcopal Diocese of Atlanta.
History of the Cathedral
Original cathedral in downtown Atlanta
The first site for St. Philip's was in downtown Atlanta, across from the State Capitol on the corner of what is now Washington Street and Martin Luther King Drive. By 1875 the small church had grown to be the largest Episcopal church in Georgia, and in 1907 St. Philip's was named the cathedral of the Diocese of Atlanta, which was formed that same year. In 1928 the cathedral selected Raimundo de Ovies as its new dean and began work on selecting a site for construction of a new cathedral.[1]
Move to Buckhead
In 1933, St. Philip's relocated to its present site at 2744 Peachtree Road NW. A gray wooden structure known as the pro-cathedral was erected and served the congregation as its house of worship while construction was begun on the cathedral. Mikell Chapel was completed in 1947, followed by De Ovies Memorial Hall in 1951. The year 1955 saw the completion of the Hall of Bishops, now renamed as Child Hall. In 1962, the cathedral was completed and dedicated. The architect for most of the structures was Francis Palmer Smith in cooperation with Ayers and Goodwin. It was consecrated to the glory of God in 1980. In 2004, St. Philip's engaged in a renovation of all existing structures and the addition of a large new wing north of De Ovies Memorial Hall as well as adding a glass atrium enclosing the former open-air courtyard adjacent to the Narthex.[1]
