Prayers of Comfort and Support for the Munk Family
My mother, Gail Munk, died early this morning, November, 14. Like so many others, she spoke highly of our congregation and its ministry of action. It was because of my mother that I, over time, stepped outside the box of shyness and complacency, becoming active in church membership and leadership. I thank you and our treasured and beloved Redeemer family for its collective support through prayer and direct communication. She was also a lead donor to our Kenya Project, believing in providing hope for those that appeared to have none. The funeral will be this Friday in my hometown of Dell Rapids, South Dakota.
Grace and Peace be felt by you and our family at Redeemer, Stuart, Beth and Bea.
 
Prayers of Comfort and Support for the Klipstein Family

Redeemer Christmas Pageant
The Sunday school class and Nursery will be presenting the annual Christmas pageant during service on Sunday, December 11th. This is an opportunity for Redeemer's youngest members to share the meaning of the season through songs and story. If you know a young person who is interested in performing, if you are a parent of a Redeemer child, or if you just enjoy working with our beautiful young people, please consider volunteering to help us prepare for the performance. Rehearsals for the pageant will take place during Sunday school and nursery November 27th and December 4, with a final rehearsal on Saturday, December 10, after the Christmas store.
