Dear Redeemer Friends,

Fall is a season of thanksgiving and reflection, and in that spirit we invite you to pledge to support the life and ministry of our church. In the Episcopal tradition, pledging is not simply a financial commitment, but a spiritual one—a grateful response to the gifts that we receive. Supporting Redeemer’s 2026 Stewardship Campaign with your pledge recognizes the blessings that we receive from our wonderful church, and ensures that we will have the resources to continue to grow as a place of worship, community, and service.

Over the past year, we have supported one another in times of joy and struggle, welcomed new and returning members, and reached out in Christ’s name to our neighbors near and far. We have also worked to address the maintenance challenges that come with caring for our beautiful building and grounds. In countless ways—both seen and unseen—the Holy Spirit has moved in our midst: as we gather for worship, share Tuesday night dinners and conversations about faith, and come together for community celebrations like the Strawberry Festival, the Shrove Tuesday Pancake Supper and Talent Show, and the Art Show. All of this is possible because of the generous and faithful support of members like you.

Please prayerfully discern what you can contribute financially and in time and expertise. Because pledges are our church’s primary source of income, we ask that you return your pledge by Sunday, November 30, so the Vestry can craft our budget for the coming year. 

Thank you for being part of the Redeemer community, and thank you for all the ways you give—your time, your talents, your prayers, and your resources. 

With gratitude and hope,

Tom McNaugher and Mary K. Young
