We like to keep you updated with everything that’s going on here at Redeemer! So, each week we film a pastoral update video and send out our Redeemer Weekly email. We also share updates and exciting things going on throughout the week on our Facebook and Instagram pages. You can check out our calendar for a fuller schedule of events, but here on our RedeemerNOW page are the major things we think you should know about now!
Workshop: Preparation for Christian Dying, May 1st
On Wednesday, May 1st, we'll be holding a Preparation for Christian Dying Workshop at 6:30 p.m. This three-part workshop will cover topics such as making choices for funeral services and burial options/logistics, as well as how to prepare a will and make financial decisions. This workshop will be led by our clergy, a local attorney, and local funeral directors/burial experts. No matter what age or stage you're at, we'd encourage you to join us!
*Even though the registration deadline of 4/21 has passed, you can still join us (your workbook just may arrive after the workshop).
Redeemer to Rwanda: August 6-16th
Come and see what the Lord is doing in Rwanda through our partnership with our sister parish in Gahini! While there, we’ll fellowship, worship, and connect with our Rwandan brothers and sisters, and with our missionaries stationed there—the Weber family! This is also a great opportunity for anyone who sponsors a child through Compassion in the area to visit with them. Please register below by April 30th.
Ikaze Ministry: Prep Day, May 4th.
The next Ikaze Prep Day is on Saturday, May 4th at 9:30am-12:30pm. We'll be creating welcome kits--making meals with fresh produce from our farm, crafting other goods, writing cards, and gathering other welcoming items which contribute to the spirit of a home. This is a family-friendly serving opportunity where children can help with the day's crafts or cooking (with parental supervision). Childcare is available for ages 3 and under, if needed (just indicate that you'd like childcare during the registration process so we can arrange nursery volunteers).
Acolyte Breakfast & Training: May 4th
All rising 4th-12th graders are invited to our Acolyte Breakfast and Training on Saturday, May 4, 2024. We will celebrate our school year of service together and train for the upcoming year. Current acolytes and those interested in learning more about our team are invited to attend. Please register by May 2. One parent is required to attend with their student.
Anglicans for Life Baby Shower, Apr. 7th-May 12th
Redeemer is participating in AFL’s World’s Largest Baby Shower starting Sunday, April 7th. Each Sunday until May 12th (Mother’s Day), the AFL will have a table to collect items for babies and new mothers. Donations can include items such as diapers, wipes, cribs, strollers, toys, blankets, gift cards, etc. Donations will support The Pregnancy Network and The Family Life Center of High Point.
Stage Renovations & Altar Furniture Fund
We are looking at doing some much needed updates to the front of the sanctuary for safety, beauty, and functionality. We are rebuilding the stage, and building a new pulpit and credence table. We expect the cost to be around $10,000-15,000. If you would like to contribute towards this to help meet this need, you can give online below or through cash or check (just be sure to designate the donation under “Stage Renovation”).
