In response to God\u2019s love, we serve the Lord with gladness!\u00a0\u00a0Redeemer offers a wide variety of opportunities for Christian service.\u00a0 \u00a0To get involved, contact the Church office at 714-846-6330 or churchoffice@redeemer-lutheran.net<\/a>.<\/p>\n These are the young people enrolled in Confirmation Class, or are confirmed, who assist in worship services. Training is provided by the Pastor as a part of Confirmation Class.<\/p>\n Working together in teams, the Altar Guild carries out the responsibilities associated with preparing the sanctuary for Sunday morning worship services. Activities include changing the altar paraments, maintaining the altar candles, changing the banners, organizing the pews, and most importantly, preparing for the celebration of Holy Communion. Both men and women are invited to serve.<\/p>\n With a friendly smile, a warm handshake, and a cheerful \u201cgood morning\u201d, each Greeter creates a welcoming atmosphere for all who enter the church for Sunday morning services. Greeters are very important contributors to Redeemer\u2019s evangelism program, making visitors feel comfortable.<\/p>\n The mission of LWML is to assist each woman of the Church in affirming her relationship with the Triune God. Women should feel empowered to use their gifts to spread the Good News and assist in missions in their community and around the world. Our ongoing mission project is Mites for Missions. Through Mites for Missions, congregational members save their pennies, nickels, dimes, and quarters in special boxes to be used for LWML missions. The Redeemer LWML also provides outreach through Advent by Candlelight (See \u201cSeasonal Events\u201d) and holds meetings occasionally as advertised in the Redeemer Reflections. Service to the Lord is foremost in all LWML activities. All women members of the congregation are automatically members of LWML and are cordially invited to attend.
