Who we are
OUR VISION
Redeemer Presbyterian Church exists to bring the historic Christian faith to bear on Athens in the hope and expectation that as we proclaim the reality of the resurrected Christ, visible changes will occur in the quality of its spiritual, social, and material life. Redeemer is Kingdom focused, not church focused; Theologically driven, not strategy driven; Energized by Christ’s presence, not drained by church activities.
We are a congregation of the Presbyterian Church in America (PCA). For a full statement of our beliefs, please refer to What We Believe or the Westminster Confession of Faith.
OUR GOALS
Our goals are Growth in Grace, Fellowship and Service, Evangelism and Missions, Biblical World and Life View & Doxological Evangelism (which is worship). Everything we do at Redeemer is filtered through the lens of these goals.
WORSHIP
We gather together every week for worship through music, reading the Bible, praying, teaching, and celebrating Communion. Sunday School for all ages is at 9:15AM and our worship service begins at 10:30AM.
CHURCH PLANTING
Redeemer believes strongly in church planting. We desire that the people of our city will know the One True and Living God; that by the grace of Jesus through faithful churches He will be made known. We are Kingdom-focused, not Redeemer-focused. As such, we pray fervently for our sister churches and hope that if God isn't calling you to Redeemer, that you would find your home at Resurrection or Good Shepherd.

Give me a steadfast heart
Give me, O Lord, a steadfast heart which no unworthy thought can drag downwards; an unconquered heart which no tribulation can wear out; an upright heart which no unworthy purpose may tempt aside. Bestow upon me also, O Lord my God, understanding to know you, diligence to seek you, wisdom to find you, and a faithfulness that may finally embrace you; through Jesus Christ, our Lord.
