Dale Atlas	Dale Atlas has been an active participant and leader in multi-church and cross-denominational activities in New England for many years. God began speaking to Dale of the necessity of the unity of the Body of Christ for effective evangelism, while she was a young Christian (John 17:23/John 13:34-35/Psalm 133). God called her into this ministry with a specific focus on uniting pastors, that being of key importance in this work. Dale began this work in her home town of Chelsea, MA, and then expanded her focus in 1994 as Director of Communications of the Greater Boston Baptist Association. In 1998, Dale began working throughout New England as the Director of Project ONE, a community-based evangelistic thrust jointly sponsored by Vision New England and Emmanuel Gospel Center.
