Latest Events
Join us in the sanctuary for a special Ash Wednesday Service as we begin the season of Lent.
The word Lent comes from an Anglo-Saxon word referring to the lengthening of days in the move from winter to spring. The season begins with Ash Wednesday and lasts for forty days (excluding Sundays). This is a reflective and penitential season, when Christians examine themselves and they remember the suffering and sacrifice of Jesus on their behalf. Significant days observed during the Lenten season include Ash Wednesday, the Sundays in Lent, and the days of Holy Week (including Maundy Thursday, Good Friday, and Holy Saturday).
Ash Wednesday calls Christians to remember their mortality and their need for a Savior. It is a time of new beginning… putting aside the sins and failures of the past in light of who we are yet to become by the grace of God. The ashes are a sign of both mortality (“ashes to ashes and dust to dust”) and purification and cleansing. The tone and atmosphere of the worship service is solemn and meditative.
Redeemer’s Ash Wednesday Service will be at 7:00 P.M. in the sanctuary. (Bible study, prayer group, ESL, and CREW will begin at 7:30 P.M.)
Join us in Fellowship Hall to make Cross Bookmarks for teachers in Haiti.
The bookmarks will go in the book bags we made for the teachers at Hosean International Ministries in Pignon, Haiti.
Supplies will be provided.
Join us for a free lunch in Fellowship Hall.
Learn about our partnership with Project Start.
Leonid Regheta will update us, as well as pick up the backpacks & school supplies for refugee students.
Contact Pastor Dieula for details at [email protected].

A Labor Day Prayer
By John Calvin
My God, Father and Savior, since You have commanded us to work in order to meet our needs, sanctify our labor that it may bring nourishment to our souls as well as to our bodies.
Make us constantly aware that our efforts are worthless unless guided by Your light and by Your hand.
Make us faithful to the particular tasks for which You have bestowed upon us the necessary gifts, taking from us any envy or jealousy at the vocations of others.
Give us a good heart to supply the needs of the poor, saving us from any desire to exalt ourselves over those who receive our bounty.
And if You should call us into greater poverty than we humanly desire, save us from any spirit of defiance or resentment, but rather let us graciously and humbly receive the bounty of others.
Above all, may every temporal grace be matched by spiritual grace, that in both body and soul we may live to Your glory.
