Thinking of stopping by?

Here are some things we thought might help you feel at home:

  • What happens? » 
  • Beginners welcome! » 
  • Kids & Youth »

We are an inclusive community.

We love welcoming people! Regardless of whether you come from a different faith tradition, or none at all – our doors are open wide to you. Regardless of whether you are in the middle of a successful career or without a job at the moment; in a relationship or arriving on your own – there are others like you in our church. Regardless of your sexual orientation or gender identity, your cultural background or personal history – you are invited here.

The Redeemer is a community exploring what faith and spirituality mean for us, both individually and as a community, with open minds and respect for the different places on the journey we find ourselves. While we are followers of Jesus in the Anglican tradition, we also live with a deep awareness that we don't have all the answers. We're not the kind of community that asks you to check your questions, doubts, or brain at the door.

Which service?

We have multiple opportunities to join us each week. Our main services are on Sunday mornings at 9:00 via Zoom and at 10:30 in person. Both services are friendly and casual. You'll receive a warm welcome.

Doors open at 8:45 for fellowship, and at 9:30, there’s faith learning for kids and adults. Kids are welcome at the 10:30 service—really. Music includes classic and contemporary, choir, organ, piano and guitars. The service typically lasts just over an hour, and we always linger for coffee, cookies and conversation afterward.

What happens?

When you arrive, someone will offer you a program leaflet and a hymn book. Find yourself a seat wherever you like, and relax. The leaflet gives you a guide to the service (and additionally contains information on other things going on within the church). 

Services are mostly made up of some singing, some listening and reflection, and some prayer. There are some beautiful rituals (including the Eucharist, also known as Communion) which we hope you'll find meaningful, whether you take part or just observe.

Beginners are always welcome.

It may look like everyone knows exactly what to say and when to say it, but it only seems that way. We’re all happy to stumble through our services together.
We’d rather be ‘real’ than ‘perfect’, and we suspect you’d rather that, too.

Kids and Youth

Our 9.30am learning program on Sunday mornings is designed with families in mind and we have activities most Sundays for kids and teens. There is nursery care available from 9am to 1pm and kids are welcome at the 10:30 service. 

P.S. If you’re concerned that your kids will make too much noise...don’t worry! We love the sound of children among us.
