PROPHETIC: Amplifying Queer & Colorful Voices with Jennifer Knapp coming NEXT WEEKEND, May 18-19, 2018 // Mark your calendars! May 18 & 19, Redeemer and four of our partner congregations are hosting queer Christian artist Jennifer Knapp for a Queer & Colorful weekend of free concerts, workshops, and discussions featuring local queer artists and activists of color to explore through art & community what it means for Redeemer to live faithfully and fully at the intersections of Racial and LGBTQIA+ justice and equity. Think of this as Redeemer’s official “coming out” as a queer affirming congregation.
