Relèven Update: April 16, 2026

Last month (March), our Relèven committee met our broker, James Tjoa, and we were impressed with his curiosity and knowledge. Following the meeting, James walked the church property with the Rev. Theresa Newell.

This week, James sent out our request for Expressions of Interest to various developers. As developers respond to our requests, our committee will have the chance to review the proposals and through continued prayerful discernment, select a developer to be our partner in this project.

If you have any questions, concerns, or feedback to share regarding the Relèven project, please don’t hesitate to reach out to one of the Relèven committee members listed below.

As always, we hope that you will keep our parish in your prayers.

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 6220 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.

  • A quiet welcome to the Seattle area

    There’s a space with a quiet welcome waiting for you a short distance north of Seattle at Episcopal Church of the Redeemer.

  • 2026 Pride update

    Pride is a good thing for the church to be at—because so many people have been told so often that God doesn’t love us as They created us.

  • Welcome, Bienvenidos, Bienvenue, 欢迎

    Welcome to Episcopal Church of the Redeemer in Kenmore, a welcoming, progressive, family‑friendly church in a short distance north of Seattle.
