Redeemer is a landmark in the Morristown community. Our diversity is our wealth. Our questions and dreams, rather than our answers, unite us.
Church of the Redeemer
Celebrating Love. Doing Justice.
Who We Are
We seek a world where ALL of God’s creation is celebrated and cherished.
A Space for Everyone
We were the first church in the state of New Jersey (in 1940) to host an AA meeting and are proud to have been blessing and marrying LGBTQ+ couples since 1991. But it doesn’t stop there! We have weekly Sunday worship, various activities and groups to join, and year-round community events.

Read the current Wardens’s notes here.
It’s spring and time for planting!!!
You are invited to join us for one or two Saturday morning garden work sessions here at church in our backyard on May 18. Please meet us around 8 AM and dress to be outside and get dirty, and please bring a filled water bottle. We will have good snacks and get to know each other too, as we begin our 3rd season of growing vegetables for the Table of Hope in our Food Security Ministry. If you would like to be involved, see Peg or Allyson or email them at pegonplanetearth(at)gmail.com & allyson.salisbury(at)gmail.com.
BOOK GROUP: Our book for May 29 – Everything I Learned, I Learned in a Chinese Restaurant: A Memoir by Curtis Chin. Served up by the cofounder of the Asian American Writers’ Workshop and structured around the very menu that graced the tables of Chung’s, Everything I Learned, I Learned in a Chinese Restaurant is both a memoir and an invitation: to step inside one boy’s childhood oasis, scoot into a vinyl booth, and grow up with him–and perhaps even share something off the secret menu.
June 3 – The Color of Water: A Black Man’s Tribute to His White Mo
Please contact Veronica for the link. Reading the book is not essential to joining our discussion, so if you are inclined, please drop in whether you have read it or not.
Welcome!
The Rev. Cynthia Black, D.D., Rector
Welcome to Redeemer! We are not just a building in the community– we are building community! We gather online and in person for worship, in person to participate in activities like our Garden of Hope food security ministry or helping clean up the Whippany River, and online for lively book discussions and forward-looking racial and ethnic reconciliation work. I would love to welcome you at any of these things, and hear what you are looking for.
Yours in faith,
Cynthia Black
Spread the Word!
Stay up to date to keep in touch, and see how to get involved!
