Hi, my name is Susan Switzer and I have been a member of Redeemer my entire life. During these past two years during the pandemic, it’s become really clear to me what is important to me about Redeemer and why I continue to pledge. The first is that Redeemer is a place for me to continue to grow my faith, but it has also been a constant during the pandemic that I can rely on weekly for my worship services, be it remotely or in person now. And having that constant has been very comforting during the pandemic.
The second is our congregation. We have an extremely supportive and encouraging congregation. And during the pandemic, I have been lucky enough to be in a small group that has met weekly via Zoom, and it has become a place where I know I can receive encouragement and support. And they are some of the people that I have seen the most of during the pandemic and has become something that I look forward to every week.
The third is the outreach that our church has done, has always done, and has continued to do helping those who in our own community have been experiencing housing insecurity: being able to help with food, with back-to-school supplies. All those things have been important, not only to me, but also to my children to help others who may be in need.
So, these are the reasons that I pledged to Redeemer: so that we continue to be a place for people to receive comfort, to receive help, and for us to be able to help and serve each other and our local community.

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. We are 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.
