Welcome To Our Redeemer's Lutheran Church!
Read about the latest happenings at Our Redeemer's Lutheran Church in our monthly newsletter:
February 2010 Newsletter
Helping the people of Haiti
A 7.0 magnitude earthquake struck Haiti on January 12 leaving the city in ruins. Already one of the poorest countries in the world, this catastrophe greatly increases the suffering
felt by many people already living with hunger and poverty. The Evangelical Lutheran Church in America (ELCA) and Lutheran World Relief (LWR) are responding through long-time partners on the ground
to provide food, water, and shelter. They are also committed to the long-term recovery of the people of Haiti.
Read more and support earthquake relief efforts at www.ELCA.org
or www.lwr.org
and you may send a check to "ORLC" with "Haiti Earthquake Relief" on the memo line. 100% of your donation will be used for relief efforts in Haiti.
Thrivent Financial for Lutherans will match members' gifts to LWR and ELCA for Haiti ($1 for every $2). Click www.thrivent.com
for more information and to have your gift matched!
Lutheran World Relief has sent an urgent call for health kits to replenish their supply, so they can continue to fulfill requests from Haiti and around the world.
We especially need dark colored hand towels and washcloths, and toothbrushes.
A Community "in the model of Christ"
As a community of faith we welcome all on the journey of life.
In our diversity we experience and celebrate the unconditional love of God as people of every race, ethnic background, social status, physical condition, sexual orientation, and gender identity.
We have become a "Reconciling In Christ" congregation so that we may be shaped by the wide variety of gifts God's people bring to community. Join us as we model the life of Christ in our commitment
to compassion, community and justice for all.
What we believe
Our creator God continually reaches out to all life. As we gather in worship, service, work and play, we join with others in God's grace and the Spirit's hope.
We gather to experience and celebrate the love of God through Jesus Christ. All are welcome. And we welcome you to take part in the community of Our Redeemer's.
Vision Statement
In the model of Christ, and for the life of the world, we are an inclusive, devoted, caring, spiritual community that accepts challenges, takes risks and grows.
Partners on the Journey
Our Redeemer's Lutheran Church is in partnership with the national church body: The Evangelical Lutheran Church in America, and the
international body: The Lutheran World Federation. These partners assist us in understanding ourselves as a diverse and global expression
of God's gifts and the earth's needs.
Worship
We celebrate God's presence in worship in a number of settings. At 9:00 am on Sunday morning we celebrate with an eclectic and upbeat mix of music and worship for children and adults.
On the 2nd Sunday of each month children share their gifts and take leadership roles in this worship time. A spirited-traditional worship service beginning at 10:30 am each Sunday
includes familiar hymns, a wonderful choir and new liturgies. Holy Communion is shared in all worship services and all are welcome.
Children are always welcome at all worship services. We also offer staffed childcare for children 4 years and younger.
