Important COVID-19 Update All four of our metro counties (Fulton, DeKalb, Cobb, and Gwinnett) have been designated by the CDC to have High Covid19 Community Levels. Following our own protocols, Redeemer will again institute a face covering requirement for all indoor activities, including worship, starting tomorrow. Hopefully, if we each do our part, this surge will be of short duration, and we can remove this requirement soon.
