North Georgia Advocate:
Still Wesleyan, Still Christian

Welcome to the North Georgia Advocate, a publication steeped in a long and proud tradition.

For 170 years the Wesleyan Christian Advocate provided coverage of news and events across the state of Georgia. In May, the final edition of the WCA rolled off the press. The long-running publication has been replaced by two new papers—the North Georgia Advocate and the South Georgia Advocate—dedicated to covering news in their respective conferences.

But don’t let the new name mislead you, we are still Wesleyan and still Christian.

The new Advocate, published twice a month in partnership with the United Methodist Reporter, includes many of the same features you have come to appreciate through the years. Plus, we are now able to focus more fully on news and events in North Georgia.

In addition, through the United Methodist Reporter, you will also receive important church news and developments from across the nation as well as the world.

Let us know what you think about the new North Georgia Advocate. We appreciate your patience. Keep in mind this is simply the beginning of a new newspaper. We will continue to make changes as we see opportunities to better serve you.

We look forward to hearing from you.
