Church of the Redeemer Episcopal
Established AD 1888, Church of the Redeemer is in the National Register of Historic Places. An Anglo-Catholic congregation in Woodfin, within the Diocese of Western North Carolina, our purpose is to worship God in the beauty of holiness, to teach the faith in such a way that we may be empowered to serve our Lord in this world, and bring others into the fellowship of the Body of Christ. We are dedicated to maintaining the Anglican traditions that have formed our worship over the ages.
We welcome all baptized Christians to receive Holy Communion at the altar of God. If you are visiting for the first time, we welcome you to the Episcopal Church. Please make yourself known to Father Hanks.
Rector's CornerHere are some points to ponder as we complete the first decade of the 21 st century. What do you feel are the most important issues facing the Christian Church at large in the next decade? What are the most important issues facing the Episcopal Church in the next decade? What do you feel are the positive aspects of the Episcopal Church? What are its negative aspects? Who or what brought you into the Episcopal Church? With all the many denominations of Christianity from which to choose, why have you chosen the Episcopal Church to be the church for you? What would you change about the Episcopal Church, if anything? Think about these points and let me know your views on them.
