Meet and Greet Potluck Dinner - January 29 at 5 pm
The invitation to the dinner is open to everyone. We have hosted these dinners before and they are fun and a great way to get to know other people in the church – those new to Redeemer and those who have been around for a while. Use the sign-up link if you can attend and also if you can help to set-up, bring some food to share, or clean-up afterwards. We will have access to the gym for any of the youth who want to enjoy some recreation time.

Annual Meeting – February 12 at 12 pm
All voting members are encouraged to attend the annual meeting to be held on Sunday, February 12, at 12 pm. Soon the annual reports will be made available to everyone. In addition we will be voting on two important items.
1) Redeemer Renaissance Bylaw Amendment - At the annual meeting the council will move to amend Redeemer’s Constitution and Bylaws. Specifically, the motion will address Section C14.03. of Chapter 14, Organizations Within This Congregation. The revised language that will be proposed establishes Redeemer Renaissance as the parent organization charged with overseeing the two education programs (the Preschool and Afterschool Programs).
