The Season of Epiphany.

The term epiphany means "to show" or "to make known" or even "to reveal." In Western churches, it remembers the coming of the wise men bringing gifts to visit the Christ child, who by so doing "reveal" Jesus to the world as Lord and King. For many Protestant church traditions, the season of Epiphany extends from January 6th until Ash Wednesday, which begins the season of Lent leading to Easter. Depending on the timing of Easter, this longer period of Epiphany includes from four to nine Sundays.

Join us: All community residents and visitors are invited to join us for worship and fellowship, as we strengthen our relationship with God through His Son, Jesus Christ.

Redeemer celebrated its 50th Anniversary! -- "By His Grace" was the theme of the celebration, chosen from Ephesians 2:8. The celebration events included a welcome fellowship/registration with refreshments on Friday, January 22nd; a catered dinner on Saturday the 23rd; and a 50th Anniversary Celebration Worship Service with Holy Communion on Sunday the 24th. Our first pastor, the Reverend Dewyth Beltz, delivered the sermon; the Reverend Richard Swanson was the Lector; and the Reverend Robert Kobler was the Litergist. The service was followed by coffee and refreshments. To view photographs of the events, click HERE.
