Church of Our Redeemer
About
Church of Our Redeemer is the Episcopal parish in Lexington, an inclusive and intergenerational community that gathers to deepen its relationship with God through worship, learning and dialogue. It aims to welcome everyone without judgment and to keep an emotionally healthy, safe environment for children, teens and adults. Sunday Holy Eucharist is the main gathering, attended in person or watched online, and members work together to lead the church.
Programs run from age three through adulthood. Children’s formation uses the Catechesis of the Good Shepherd, a hands-on Montessori-based method with a music component, and youth in grades 6 to 12 take part in Rite 13, Journey to Adulthood, Confirmation and a Sunday-night youth group. Adults join forums, a Wednesday morning Bible study on Zoom and Education for Ministry seminar groups. An annual parish retreat is a place where friendships form.
