Augusta, GA 30901
Redemption Church is part of the Christian and Missionary Alliance. We are a church of approximately 120 with approximately 35-40% children and youth. At Redemption Church we are striving together to know the real Jesus and make Him known. We are not there yet, we are certainly not perfect, but we believe that we can be honest about our failures, sins, and weaknesses because the good news of Jesus redeems it all for the good of ourselves and others. It is in these places that we often experience the love and grace of Jesus most vividly which equips us to love others in the same way. We love our city and seek to serve our neighbors for the good of all who live here. Most importantly, we love and value people, just as Jesus does, and invite everyone into the family of God.
The goal of Redemption Kids is to partner with parents to be influencers in the lives of their children and to come alongside them in ministering to their children in every phase of life.
The goal of Redemption Youth is to discuss relevant issues and relate them to Biblical principles equipping young adults to lead Godly lives and be lights in their schools and communities. We believe that God is Lord over all of life and that there is nothing in life that is to be separated from God. Redemption Youth aims to create a community among teenagers that allows them to be open and honest with struggles and create relationships in which they pray for and encourage one another in their daily walks with Christ.
