The story of Redemption Church
Redemption Church is an English speaking congregation meeting at Savannah Chinese Christian Church. The leadership of S.C.C.C. asked our small bible study to pray about planting an English-speaking Church to reach Savannah with the Gospel.
Redemption Church is a separate ministry; however, we have a great relationship with S.C.C.C. and we’re very grateful for their hospitality!
We are a mixed congregation, currently independent of a formal denomination.
Our worship service is based upon a Presbyterian form of worship with congregation participation of confessions and prayers. Our position on worship, preaching, and outreach is based on God’s Holy Word as interpreted by a conservative Reformed tradition. We enjoy that, on any given Sunday is a mix of different races and denominations enjoying the presence of Jesus Christ, through the joy and comfort of the Holy Spirit. Our preaching focus is conveying the Word of God; primarily through walking through a book of the Bible. We have been gathering for a couple years by word of mouth and have decided to take the next step of a website invitation. We are tiny but we continue to pray that whomever attends would enjoy Christ’s presence, and the comfort and joy of His Word. We maintain that a relationship with God is an act of worship for the finished work of Christ! We do not work for our salvation. We follow Jesus Christ, the author and finisher of our faith (John 6:28-29)
