Welcome to
the Episcopal Church of the Redeemer
Our Vision...
We are
a people called together by God
To be the body of Christ: a sign, instrument, and foretaste of God's
kingdom in this world.
Our
Mission...
is to be Christ within our community. We will focus our worship on
the Eucharist, giving thanks and praise to God, entering into communion
with each other and the saints.
We will
affirm, enable, and nurture one another's spiritual growth, individual
gifts, and faithfulness.
We will
proclaim God's love everywhere we are in our words and in our actions.
Our
Values...
We draw
strength from our parish church with traditional values, lifestyles,
liturgies and prayer as we share Christ's word in a dynamic multi-cultural
community.
The
people of Episcopal Church of the Redeemer welcome you to our open and
diverse community of English and Spanish-speaking worshippers. As a
bi-lingual parish, we have three Sunday services, one in English and
two in Spanish:
- 9:00 a.m./ Eucharist in English
- 11:30 a.m. and 1:30 p.m. / Eucharist in Spanish
As
one of the nine Jubilee Centers in the Episcopal Diocese of Chicago,
we strive with God's grace for effective ministry in Elgin's community
through our Soup Kettle for the homeless and our ministry to the Latino
population.
Come
join us as we proclaim God's love everywhere we are through our words
and in our actions!
