“Be still and know that I am God.” Psalm 46:10
Soaking Prayer Service: Join us in the worship space on Wednesday, October 20th at 7 p.m. as we invite the Holy Spirit to come and soak us in His healing and holy presence. Join us as we are “soaked” in pray-er. Join Cindy Jennings and Diane Atkins for Soaking Prayer - a contemplative, meditative style of prayer fea-turing quiet, peaceful music, scripture and prayer that is often sought after as a balm for troubles of the body, mind and spirit.
Blood Drive: Due to staff shortage, the Blood Drive on October 24th is canceled.
Beginning the end of October,: We invite you to add beauty to the liturgy and honor someone close to your heart with ambo flower donations.
The flowers that sit in front of the ambo where the Word is proclaimed can be contributed in memory of a loved one, or in celebration of a special anniversary/birthday by contacting Laurie in the office with name and date. We will add this name to the prayers of the faith-ful, as well as acknowledge the memory/celebration in the bulletin. The flower arrangements will come from King William Florist, longtime Redeemer parishioners.
Please note we will not be accepting donations during the seasons of Advent and Lent as flowers in the Wor-ship Space are not liturgically appropriate during those seasons. Suggested donation is $75.

You may also see any Knights of Columbus member to place your order.
New Youth Christmas Eve Choir: Youth grades 6-12 are invited to join our first ever Youth Christmas Eve Choir. Due to masking regulations and no vac-cination options for our children, we are doing things a little differ-ently this year. We will rehearse by grade beginning Wednesday eve-nings late October-November to
prepare to sing at the 4:00 pm Christmas Eve Mass. In December, both junior and senior youth groups will re-hearse together on Sunday mornings after the 10:00 am Mass. Our vaccinated youth will not need to wear a mask to sing, but we do require unvaccinated youth to remain masked and we will social distance all groups both in rehearsal and while singing at Mass. First re-hearsal dates are listed below. If you have any ques-tions or concerns, please contact Erin Woods at [email protected] .
· First Rehearsal for grades 9-12: October 20th from 6:15 pm-7:00 pm.
· First Rehearsal for grades 6-8: October 27th from 6:15 pm-7:00 pm.
Craft Bazaar Donors needed! Since most of the Ba-zaar income was applied to 2020 fiscal year, you can help keep the Redeemer Craft Bazaar a success by considering a monetary donation toward the raffle table and/or bazaar expenses. This is the 40th Annual Ba-zaar and we’d like to make it stand out. Please contact Dave Worland at [email protected] or 804-498-6868
Redeemer’s Craft Bazaar: We rely heavily on generous donations from Parishion-ers. Beginning October 9, there will be donation boards in the Worship Com-
mons. Please take a tag to donate any of the items listed. Attach the tag and return to the church by the date listed on the tag. Contact [email protected] if you have ques-tions. Thank you
