St. Hilda's Inman Park, in a neighborhood of Atlanta, Georgia, is a parish of the Diocese of the South in the Anglican Catholic Church. The building was originally built in 1939 as a Primitive Baptist Church. It was converted to be a parish of the newly formed Anglican Catholic Church in 1978, and was consecrated in 1979. When Rev. Frederick Hoger was Rector, until his death in 1999, the parish established a men's shelter and a soup kitchen for the local community in Little Five Points. In 2000, Rev. John Roddy became the pastor. At that time, the neighborhood gentrified. While previously the parish had had a strong ministry to the homeless, who slept in the pews and ate in the parish hall, the neighborhood changed to that of largely young professionals. In 2023, the Anglican Catholic Church through the Saint Paul Mission Society targeted St. Hilda's for domestic parish revitalization. Rev. Creighton McElveen, SSC, was appointed Priest-in-Charge after the retirement of Rev. Terrence Hall. Rev. McElveen is also a co-host of the podcast, The Sacramentalists.

Jimmy Carter Library and Museum

The Jimmy Carter Library and Museum in Atlanta, Georgia houses U.S. President Jimmy Carter's papers and other material relating to the Carter administration and the Carter family's life. The library also hosts special exhibits, such as Carter's Nobel Peace Prize and a full-scale replica of the Oval Office as it was during the Carter Administration, including a reproduction of the Resolute desk. The Carter Library and Museum includes some parts that are owned and administered by the federal government, and some that are privately owned and operated. The library and museum are run by the National Archives and Records Administration and are part of the Presidential Library system of the federal government. Privately owned areas house Carter's offices and the offices of the Carter Center, a non-profit human rights agency. The building housing the library and museum makes up 69,750 square feet (6480 m²), with 15,269 square feet (1419 m²) of space for exhibits and 19,818 square feet (1841 m²) of archive and storage space. The library stacks house 27 million pages of documents; 500,000 photos, and 40,000 objects, along with films, videos, and audiotapes. These collections cover all areas of the Carter administration, from foreign and domestic policy to the personal lives of President and Mrs. Carter. The complex lies next to John Lewis Freedom Parkway, which was originally called "Presidential Parkway" (and at one point, "Jimmy Carter Parkway") in its planning stages. The land on which the museum sits was a part of General Sherman's headquarters during the Civil War's Battle of Atlanta.
