#49 April 22, 2026 - Fun Things to do in Atlanta this Week

Missing the Georgia heat while shivering in NYC, we’re bringing you a special travel edition of the City on Purpose audio rundown to keep you connected to everything happening back home. This week, we’re diving into a packed calendar of local events ranging from Holy Hour and trivia to TopGolf socials and Earth Day plant sales, along with a sweet "Featured Find" at Big Softie for those ready to embrace the Atlanta humidity with some world-class soft serve. We also highlight new career and volunteer opportunities at Shirt Shanty and Marist School, share details on the upcoming Upright By Christ summer retreat at St. George Island, and reflect on a powerful conversation between Fr. Mike Schmitz and Dallas Jenkins about finding success through failure. Whether you’re looking for spiritual formation or the best ice cream sandwich in the metro area, we’ve got you covered—subscribe at substack.com/@cityonpurpose to stay in the loop!
