Sunday Opportunities

New Member Orientation

Want to learn more about Our Redeemer? Interested in becoming a member of the congregation? Join Pastor Kerri and Pastor Michael for a time of conversation on Sunday, March 29 from 2-4pm. Childcare is available upon request. If you’re interested but can’t make the orientation, please be in touch with one of the pastors. 

Adult Sunday Morning Class

The Devil and All His Works - God's operative or a fallen angel? The Accuser or the Light-Bearer? Join Pastor Michael between services for a four-week look at the role the devil plays in Scripture. This class meets in the Conference Room from 10-10:45am each Sunday.

Crossroads Confirmation

For Lutherans, Confirmation is a valuable milestone in our life of faith, a time of intentional learning, formation, and relationship-building as young people explore more deeply the faith given to them in baptism. At Our Redeemer, Crossroads Confirmation is a three-year program for students in 7th grade and above, which includes monthly class time, participation in worship, and other formation opportunities. Our next class will be on Sunday, March 8 at 6pm. If you would like to participate in the program, please contact Pastor Kerri at [email protected]. 

Growing in God

​Students in pre-k through 6th grade meet in the social hall and 7th-12th graders meet in the youth room. Parents/guardians should plan to complete the “Student Information Sheet” online. Talk to Pastor Kerri or Phyllis Permar if you have any questions. No classes will be held on Easter Sunday (April 5).

Weekday Opportunities

Pub Theology

If you are looking for a place to meet or make friends and discuss the important things of life, Pub Theology is the place for you! Each time we meet, a new topic of discussion is raised - from theological to social. The topic is revealed that evening at each table. A clear set of Ground Rules (posted at each table) ensure that all opinions are respected. There is no need to be a Bible Scholar or a theologian because your interests and life experiences are enough for this gathering. Current participants come from many denominational backgrounds and we are also enriched by individuals within the group that view themselves as agnostic, atheist or uncertain. Pub Theology is meant to be a safe space where people can come to talk, listen and make friends.
​
 Pub Theology meets on the fourth Tuesday at 7pm at Bubba's Burghers, 114 Southpointe Blvd., Canonsburg. Many people arrive around 6:30 to get settled and order food.

Book Believers

A book-study group led by Steven D'Addieco. Through lively and loving discussions, we share our personal takes on each week's reading. The group is currently reading Christianity and World Religions by Adam Hamilton. This is a short and easy-to-read introduction to other faiths and how they overlap and depart from our own. Its aim is to help readers foster love and understanding across the theological spectrum. The group is meeting in the Conference Room on Tuesday evenings at 7pm through March 31 (except for Pub Theology night on March 24).
