How You Can Participate

everyday Sacred

While Pr. Keith Anderson is on sabbatical this summer, Redeemer will explore the sabbatical theme of “everyday sacred,” by doing some everyday things with our minds on God.

Meet God in the kitchen. Learn to bake rolls, which we'll eat at noon. While the dough rises, we'll sing hymns about bread and be entertained. Lunch is provided. Thursday, June 26, 10 am in the Fellowship Hall

A tune-up to get you ready for the golf course. Improve your swing and find out how the principles of golf relate to God’s Word. Led by Steve Tague, Certified Golf Teaching Professional (USGTF).  Sunday, June 29, 11 am in the Parlor
