Church of Our Redeemer, Episcopal

The Church of Our Redeemer welcomes you to our community and to our website. Every person at Redeemer probably has a different reason why they come to worship God in this community and why they think Redeemer is special – perhaps it’s the strong commitment to children and youth, our mission and advocacy to help those in need, or the friendships formed at our annual parish retreat. Please ask us, we would love to tell you!

What happens at Our Redeemer?

  • Sunday Service of Holy Eucharist

    The best way to get to know more about this church community is to worship with us at our 9:30AM Sunday Eucharist. You are warmly welcome to join us in person at 6 Meriam Street, on Facebook, or on our live-stream page.

  • Christian Education for Children & Youth

    Children and youth have chances to learn and deepen their walk with God and their understanding. We offer programs for 3-year-olds and high school seniors, and every age in between!

  • Adult Christian Education

    Learning and growing is an important part of the Christian life at every age! Adults attend Adult Forums, Wednesday Bible Study, and other opportunities to learn and grow.

  • Fellowship & Community Life

    Our time together happens in worship, in formation and education, in committees, on teams, and at parties.

  • Social Action

    Taking social action outside the church is an important expression of our faith and relationship with God. Our Social Action team and our Racial Equity Action Group take the lead on this work with a variety of partners.

Church of Our Redeemer Mission Statement

new in fall 2024; read more here

An inclusive and intergenerational community of faith, we gather in the name of Jesus Christ to deepen our relationship with God through joyful worship, learning, and dialogue. We value and aspire to welcome everyone without judgment. We nurture and seek deep, caring relationships with each other and maintain an emotionally healthy, comfortable, and safe environment for children, teens, and adults. We work together to lead our church. Embracing our calling to social action toward truth and justice, we love and serve our neighbors in Lexington and beyond.
