Worship services at Redeemer Lutheran Church are held on Sunday mornings at 8:00 AM and 11:00 AM. Both worship services enjoy the same style and format that encourages getting familiar with the Bible as passages are spoken and sung. We use liturgies from the Lutheran Service Book (LSB) in a traditional format. We encourage you to bring your Bible from home so that you can follow along during the Scripture readings and the sermon as well as the 9:30 AM Bible studies. Pew Bibles and hymnals are available.
During this time of social distancing due to coronavirus/COVID-19, online resources are available for those who cannot attend in person. Please navigate under Online Services for the following:
- Video Services
- Private Holy Communion
- Online Giving
- Prayer Requests
Children are always welcome in our worship services. Services follow the ancient practice of the church year including the seasons of Advent, Christmas, Epiphany, Lent, Holy Week and Easter, and Pentecost. The services are reverent, family friendly, and oriented around receiving God’s gifts of forgiveness and new life. We often include choirs, handbells, and other musical enhancements to the worship service.
With the exception of weeks when special events and holidays occur, we offer Wednesday evening Service of Light beginning at 6:30 pm. This is a brief service (30 minutes) preceded by fellowship (light refreshments) and followed by a Bible Study from 7:00 to 8:00 pm. [Note: The Service of Light is on hold due to COVID-19. The Wednesday evening Bible Study at 7:00 pm takes place in the Fellowship Hall.]
The first Sunday in October has traditionally been a combined Service in the Park held at the picnic shelter in Huntington Beach Central Park, followed by the annual Church and Preschool picnic. Starting in 2020, the Central Park picnic shelter is no longer available, so we will be hosting the event at Redeemer. Details will be published in advance in the church bulletin.
Church office hours are Monday through Friday 9:00 AM – 11:30 AM and 1:00 PM – 4:00 PM. Preschool office hours are Monday through Friday 6:30 AM – 6:00 PM.
NURSERY
We offer a staffed nursery during each of the Sunday morning services for children 5 years and younger. However, we encourage families to worship together in the Sanctuary.
