Master Planning Update
Thank you for making the Visioning and Programming phase of our Master Planning process a success! Through over 700 congregation wide participant hours, we shared our ideas to envision a future for Redeemer that is welcoming, active, and rooted in our mission to be the hands and feet of Christ in our Midtown community and beyond This time does not even include the dedicated Management Team hours outside of the Visioning Sessions in preparation of the meetings, interfacing with the consultants and Midtown neighbors. Our conversations converged around common themes that will transform our campus into a place that will inspire and empower us to achieve our vision and move Redeemer forward into the next century Our consultants are hard at work compiling data and dreams before we move into the next phase of our process Concept & Master Planning We look forward to sharing the results with you soon!
Rejoice With Us!
