"Sharing Christ's Love with the Greatest Number of People"
Redeemer Lutheran Church
April 1, 2022
 
Greetings in the name of Jesus Christ! 
Thank you to all those who helped put together the "Bags of Joy" for the homeless. Now we need everyone to take as many bags as possible to distribute to those who are in need. You will find the bags in the Crossroads. We are grateful that you will join us in sharing the love of Christ with those experiencing homelessness in our community.  

Continuing the theme of joy, I will be traveling to Savannah, Georgia, on Friday. On Saturday I will preside over the wedding of Forrest Stieg and Ashley Mennes. Please keep them in your prayers as they start their new life together. I will return to the area later in the day on Sunday. 
Sunday Worship
Sunday Worship – 8:30 am, 9:45 am, and 11:00 am
On Sunday, April 3, we will continue our Lenten journey! Pastor Josh will preach and preside at all three services. Please come as you are able.


Deadline to order your flowers for Easter and/or donate to Lutheran World Relief is Sunday, April 10. Click here for order form to mail in or give online.

Changes to Faith Formation Schedule this week
Please note that our youth who attend the Fairfax County School District will be on spring break this coming week. After checking in with youth and teachers the Faith Formation schedule for this week is . . . no Faith Formation classes for Pre-K through Grade 4 and no Confirmation class. It is the perfect time to attend worship as a family. Our 5th and 6th Graders will meet in class as well as the High School youth.
