Meet Our People

Staff & Elders

Meet the people who serve and shepherd our church family.

Staff

At Redeemer, each team member plays a vital role in the ministry and care of our church family. Our prayer for our staff is that everyone would find their role personally fulfilling while also being supported and encouraged to pursue the Lord’s calling in their life.

Elders

God designed the church's life to be led by shepherds who feed, know, guide, and protect the flock. They serve as under-shepherds to Christ, who is the church's Head and true pastor. Every elder at Redeemer must meet the biblical qualifications outlined in 1 Timothy 3:1-7, Titus 1:5-9, and Acts 20:28.
