Testimonials

• Lauren: Through Church of the Redeemer at Northwestern I've come to understand what it really means to live in Christian community. I have especially appreciated how our church's small groups, retreats, and ministry opportunities have helped me grow in my faith during my formative college years.
   

  Justin: I first started going to Redeemer in January of my Sophomore year. I had been searching for a solid church community that saw each other more than just once a week. I found it! Since then I have been blessed to see how God is transforming people's lives in such unexpected ways. Redeemer's community has been supportive, encouraging, and consistent as I've journeyed into walking and deepening my relationship with God.

  Anika: Church of the Redeemer at Northwestern has become such an important part of my campus life because of the strong, sacrificial Christian community it fosters. This community is made up of students from all different backgrounds and fields of study, and its central location on campus makes it accessible and encourages outreach.

  Redeemer also extends beyond the scope of Northwestern, continually reminding me of the extensiveness of Christ's church. The vast network of the Greenhouse Movement and the greater Anglican Church encourage both church growth and personal growth.

  Ewain: Church of the Redeemer is a great, close knit community. It has been a major source of friendship and spiritual support for me during my time at NU. Church meets right on campus, so I don't need to travel, which is very convenient.

  
   

  Daniel: I've really enjoyed being a part of the Church of the Redeemer at Northwestern. Not only is it an amazing, dynamic and diverse community, but I've been encouraged to discover and share my spiritual gifts, and my faith has been challenged in so many ways. My greatest joy has been getting to lead prayer meetings at my place on Wednesday nights. I'm really grateful to have found this group!

  Joyce: I am so thankful to be part of the Church of the Redeemer community. It has really given me a richer and more accurate understanding of what it means to “be the Church.” I no longer view church as a building that I would go into for an hour a week, but now I view church as God created it to be—this community of believers, this body of Christ, all committed to the work of His Kingdom. I just get so excited about our presence as the Church right here on campus because I truly believe it is powerful, and I look forward and hope expectantly for God to work through us to reach out, bring more people into our community, and really transform Northwestern. Something else I love about Church of the Redeemer is that I am encouraged to serve, not just be served, and to discover my gifts and really be an active member. I have been especially blessed by the congregations that we help lead at nursing homes in the area. I have learned so much through this ministry about who Christ is and how much joy and fulfillment I get from losing myself in loving and serving those around me. It has also been incredible to see God moving in those places and among the people there. I am always blown away and reminded of his transformative power and faithfulness.
