Welcome to Christ the Redeemer!
What We Believe
God, infinitely perfect and blessed in himself, in a plan of sheer goodness freely created [us] to make [us] share in his own blessed life. For this reason, at every time and in every place, God draws close to [us]. He calls [us] to seek him, to know him, to love him with all his strength. He calls together all [of us], scattered and divided by sin, into the unity of his family, the Church. To accomplish this, when the fullness of time had come, God sent his Son as Redeemer and Savior. In his Son and through him, he invites [us] to become, in the Holy Spirit, his adopted children and thus heirs of his blessed life.

First Time Attending Mass? Welcome!
If you have never been to Mass before, or if you haven’t gone in a long time, we are excited to have you join us as we celebrate and worship together.
We understand that it may feel foreign at first, and that some parts might seem confusing. The last thing we would want is for you to feel unwelcome during the service, so we have created a little guide for you to help you understand the liturgy a little better.
