Due to the coronavirus, North Point Ministries is asking its Atlanta-area congregations to stay home and instead tune in for their Sunday worship.

The network of churches, founded by pastor Andy Stanley, will not host services for the next three Sundays beginning March 15, Stanley said in an email to church-goers. Each church's services will still be streamed online.

Here's a list of churches in the metro Atlanta area that are affected, according to a North Point spokeswoman:

• Browns Bridge Church (Cumming)

• Buckhead Church

• Decatur City Church

• Gwinnett Church

• North Point Community Church (Alpharetta)

• Woodstock City Church

Stanley isn’t the only one canceling in-person services.

Another Atlanta megachurch, Passion City Church, is also moving all of its weekly gatherings online “for the foreseeable future,” pastor Louie Giglio said in a video posted to Facebook.
