ATLANTA area FReepers:

I know this is off topic, but I'm not sure where else I can post this. I have a friend I have been turning from paganism and introducing to Catholicism. She's interested in attending Mass. I cannot be there as I live in Virginia and she lives in the Atlanta area, basically I was hoping an Atlanta-area FReeper or two might be able to suggest a good, non-heterodox parish for her to go to. Anywhere in Atlanta or Lawrenceville, Cumming, Suwanee, Gainesville, Duluth, Dacula, any of those places would be fine. Can anyone help me out here?

I can highly recommend my parish, which is welcoming and orthodox. It's on the northwest side of Atlanta, just within the city limits. Chastain Park area, for locals.

Holy Spirit Catholic Church

Latin Mass might be too much for her, but on the other hand if she's coming from a pagan background it would probably fascinate her. And they are REALLY orthodox in this parish: St. Francis de Sales, Mableton

How far out of town does your friend live? Most of the communities you mention are in the far northeast suburbs - except for Cumming which is far north. If she lives out that way, our parish would be a very long haul.

Unfortunately, I am not familiar with the Catholic parishes out that way. But I know there is a FReeper who lives in the Peachtree Corners area (that's northeast) who is very orthodox and has a pastor who is very orthodox too. But I can't remember his/her name, other than that I think it begins with "D" . . . . Maybe if we ping the Catholic list.
