From the Henssler Financial Studios this is your news minute on the Marietta Daily Journal Podcast presented by Engineered Solutions of Georgia. Today is Wednesday August 2nd, and I'm Brian Giffin

After months of consideration, the departure of its senior pastor and “countless hours” of prayer, the members of Roswell Street Baptist Church have a plan.

The congregation, which is roughly a quarter of the size it once was, is not going anywhere. While the option of selling its aging 11-acre campus was considered, the members have instead decided to stay in their home of 80 years, while repurposing about half of the space.

The church plans to demolish two buildings — about a quarter of its square footage — and eliminate some of its parking. In its place will be a green space, which will be primarily used for sports and recreation.
