There are many exciting ways to get involved in small groups at Redeemer Lutheran Church.

Groups meet weekly or monthly in homes or church-daytime, evenings, weekends.  No matter what your schedule- Redeemer has a group that will benefit from your involvement.

We invite you to contact several groups that look interesting and talk to the contact person.  After finding out more about groups that interest you we hope you will choose to become involved.

You can count on prayer, study, fellowship, service opportunities, good times, and great friendships.
