The Rev. Jed Fox: Hi, I’m Father Jed. I’m the Rector of the Church of the Redeemer here in Kenmore, Washington. And I’m coming today from the furnace room. This is where the furnace usually makes the hot air that sends it to the rest of the church up above us. But as many of you, this thing hasn’t been working for about 18 months.
And so I wanted to give you an update on where we are, because it’s been a long 18 months.
Where we are is really close to being able to sign a contract with a company who will replace this furnace right here. We’re not there yet, but we’re really close. And I could use all of your prayers, to make sure that we can replace this furnace quickly and smoothly. I truly believe that your prayers will make it much easier than it could ever be without them.
We’re not in a place where we can worship in this building yet because this thing isn’t working. And so we’re trying as hard as we can to get this done as quickly as we can. And I’ll have more updates as we sign a contract, as the unit that we’re going to replace this with is made, and as it’s installed. I’ll be able to hopefully be able to show you some videos of the progress that we’re making, the way things look.
So until then, I hope that you will stay tuned wherever you’re seeing this video and see what the progress is going to be. And you will continue to pray for the church, for the furnace, and particularly for the people that make up the church that we can continue to be God’s heart and hands in Kenmore and the area around it, that we can all be little part of making God’s kingdom here on earth.
Now until I see you again, may God’s blessing be with you. Amen.
Church of the Redeemer
Welcome to Church of the Redeemer: Worshiping God, living in community, and reaching out to the world. We are an Episcopal Church serving north King County and south Snohomish County, Washington. As you travel your road, go with friends walking the way of Jesus at Redeemer.
Church of the Redeemer is at 6210 Northeast 181st Street in Kenmore, Washington. The campus is a short distance north of Bothell Way, near the Burke-Gilman Trail. The entrance looks like a gravel driveway. The campus is larger on the inside than it is on the outside. And we managed to hide a large building on the side of a hill that is not easily seen from the street.
The Episcopal Church welcomes you.
