FOR THIS SUNDAY  |  NEW ON THE BLOG


CHANGE OF PLANS: Due to hurricane damage, we're NOT able to meet at the Grand Bohemian hotel beginning this Sunday, October 16 for Redeemer’s adult Christian-education class as we previously announced. Our adult class will meet as usual in the SANCTUARY until further notice.

OPERATION CHRISTMAS CHILD: We're kicking off our Shoebox Drive 2016 this Sunday, October 16. Read more details here!

REDEEMER KIDS CHRISTMAS: Our Redeemer Kids are hosting a special Christmas Celebration in the evening on Sunday, December 11. They will share the story of Jesus' birth with family and friends. More details to come! In working toward that special event, we'll have music rehearsals each Sunday (beginning this Sunday, October 16) immediately after the worship service in the Fellowship Hall. Pastor Craig will dismiss the elementary children before the last song to join the preschoolers already in the Fellowship Hall from Children's Worship. The Children's Committee and volunteers will walk the children to the Fellowship Hall for a 10-15 minute rehearsal. Parents need to pick up the children from the Fellowship Hall after the service.


CHURCH PICNIC: We're planning an old-fashioned church picnic on Sunday, October 23 right after the worship service in Hampton Park (at the gazebo, near Rutledge Avenue and ball fields). Bring your own picnic basket and blanket, and pray for good weather! Bring outdoor games to play like cornhole or bocce, and there will be organized games for the kids, too. So invite a friend or neighbor, come build community, and get to know Redeemer folks in other community groups!

BAILEY WEDDING: Our senior pastor's eldest daughter is getting married! Craig & Kathy would love for anyone in the church family to come celebrate with them at the wedding ceremony on Saturday, October 29 at 5 pm in Redeemer's sanctuary. Come wish Kate & Roy well before they leave for their private family reception.

WATCHMEN ON THE WALL: Sign up for a block of time to pray for specific needs in our congregation using this prayer schedule. 
From Isaiah 62:6 
I have posted watchmen on your walls, Jerusalem;
    they will never be silent day or night.
You who call on the Lord,
    give yourselves no rest.


PRAYER REQUESTS: Our Session longs to pray for our congregation, and many of you offer your requests on Sundays through the attendance pads. We've also developed a web form for you to submit prayer requests you have during the week. If you'd like prayer, please use this form.
