Healthy Church

During the current outbreak of a new corona virus (COVID-19) Church of the Redeemer is providing you with a handful of trustworthy resources or statistical and general information on COVID-19. Please see the links below.

As with all infectious diseases, we encourage you all to follow these practices to help avoid the spread of disease:

  • Wash your hands often with soap and water for at least 20 seconds.
  • Avoid touching your eyes, nose, and mouth.
  • If you have symptoms such as fever, upset stomach, or frequent coughing or sneezing, please stay home and seek medical attention if symptoms warrant. Should you or a family member feel the need for testing, here is a helpful link to find a site near you.
  • Cover your mouth and nose with a tissue if you sneeze or cough. If you do not have a tissue, use your bent elbow, not your hand.

Worship at Church of the Redeemer:

All worship at Church of the Redeemer is held exclusively online. There will be no gatherings, meetings, or worship services of any kind at 2944 Erie Ave. as long as we remain in Phase 1 of our Regathering Plan. Updates on our Phase status can be found on our Regathering Plan page.

We have regular worship and prayer online. And we will continue to act with diligence and intention to stay connected to each other throughout the duration of this isolating time. You are not alone. You will not be disconnected. We will be church to and for and with each other in positive, practical, and transformative ways.

Things are moving quickly in this crisis. Updates to this page will continue, please check regularly for the latest developments.


Please continue to pray for healing and peace during this time.

O God of peace, who has taught us that in returning and rest we shall be saved, in quietness and in confidence shall be our strength: By the might of your Spirit lift us, we pray, to your presence, where we may be still and know that you are God; through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen. - Book of Common Prayer, page 832.

We love children, and children love Redeemer!

Children are at the heart of life at Redeemer. Children learn about the word of God through our Children's Christian Education programs; they are involved in worship services, they play music in our services, and they form lifelong friendships with each other through their experiences.

Make a Donation Altar Flowers Endowment Fund Commitment 2021

Thank you for supporting the mission and ministry of Church of the Redeemer!

To give a one time gift, click the button below. To make a financial commitment for 2021, use the Commitment 2021 tab above.

Donate

Flowers in our holy worship spaces are a beautiful gift to God and those who attend services at Church of the Redeemer as well as those being honored or remembered. A contribution to the Flower Fund is a meaningful way to honor or remember a loved one for special life events such as birthdays, anniversaries, baptisms, confirmations, thanksgivings, or in memory of a loved one.

Donate

The Church of the Redeemer is blessed to have received special gifts from parishioners who wanted Redeemer to have permanent savings to care for our facilities and to supplement our pledge income.

Such permanent savings are often called an “endowment.” The endowed funds are permanently set aside by donors or by the Vestry. Some of our donors have specified uses for their endowment gifts. A limited portion of the funds is distributed each year to supplement our general budget. All funds are invested with professional advice.

What about your connection to Redeemer changes the way you live in this world? Your financial commitment is a response to the work that God is doing with you here. It is a practical way to ensure that others are able to experience the relationships of holy connection and communion that are shaping your life.

For 2021, we ask that you make your commitment through regular scheduled electronic giving, if possible. Whether it be weekly or annually, giving electronically is a safe and sustainable way to ensure your continued financial support.
