ABOUT US
We are an inclusive congregation, welcoming all people and their gifts regardless of gender, race, sexual orientation, education, political views and economic status. We practice mutual ministry - the gifts of the laity being as important and valued as that of the clergy, working together serving God's people and creation.
We are a community of faith in the Episcopal tradition in the Diocese of Western North Carolina,
a member of the world-wide Anglican Communion.
WORSHIP TOGETHER
At Redeemer Shelby, everyone is truly welcome. In our community of faith, no one who is too old or too young, no one who has too many doubts or too few beliefs.
We are a congregation experiencing our own renewal and invite you to come and be a part of the new thing God is doing in and through us.
SHARE IN THE JOY
We gather to worship and be fed at an altar prepared by a loving God for all creation by the power of Jesus Christ. You, who are part of that creation, are welcome.
We invite you to share with us in the joy, work and building of God’s kingdom here where we have been planted.
FIND COMMUNITY
There’s a place for you to offer your gifts and grow spiritually.
Through The Shepherd's Table and Food Pantry, our community garden, Bible discussion groups, choir, and more you will share in our community.
