Trump returning to metro Atlanta
With one last week of early voting kicking off in Georgia, former President Donald Trump is returning to Atlanta for two events on Monday.
ATLANTA - With a little over a week to go before Election Day, both campaigns are making their final push for Georgia's crucial electoral college votes.
On Monday, former President Donald Trump returns to the metro Atlanta area for his third visit in less than two weeks.
The Republican candidate will appear at the National Faith Advisory Board's Inaugural National Faith Summit at Worship with Wonders Church in Powder Springs.
The event, which will bring together 1,000 pastors, will also feature faith leaders including Paula White, Jentezen Franklin, Jack Graham, Kenneth Copeland as well as former Kansas Gov. Sam Brownback.
Trump is expected to address the importance of standing for Biblical principles, a press release for the conference noted.

"This is a defining moment for our nation, and the faith community must rise to the occasion. We are called to be both the salt and the light in a world that desperately needs truth," NFAB President Paula White-Cain shared. "As pastors and leaders, we have a responsibility to guide our congregations in standing up for biblical values and ensuring that our voices are heard at the ballot box."
Following the event, Trump will head to Atlanta for a rally at McCamish Pavilion on Georgia Tech's campus.
The rally is scheduled to begin at 6 p.m. with doors opening at 2 p.m. For those who are interested in attending, click here to register.
