Redeemer is a landmark in the Morristown community. Our diversity is our wealth. Our questions and dreams, rather than our answers, unite us.

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.

Liturgical Notes for 2026,  Liturgical Calendar of seasons at Redeemer     Summer hours: 9:30 a.m.

Contact your federal legislators during August Recess!

Check your legislators’ websites to find out about town halls – these are great opportunities to ask questions and share your perspective.  Or set your own meeting by reaching out to the district offices’ schedulers.  Not what to talk about?  The Government Relations section of the Episcopal Church puts out Action Alerts that can be a great source.  There’s also a sample guide to an effective meeting.

 

 

The Book Group meets online at 7 pm

8/31 There are Rivers in the Sky – Elif Shafak. A dazzling feat of storytelling, There Are Rivers in the Sky entwines these outsiders with a single drop of water, which remanifests across the centuries. A source of life and harbinger of death, rivers—the Tigris and the Thames—transcend history, transcend fate: “Water remembers. It is humans who forget.”
9/28 – THE BOOK THIEF – Markus Zusak
10/26 – THE COUNTRY PEOPLE – Daniel Mason

Welcome!

The Church of Redeemer with its sign and colorful flags out front on a clear sunny day.
All are welcome!
Welcome to Redeemer! We are not just a building in the community—we are a community! We gather online and in person for worship, come together for activities like our Garden of Hope, our food security ministry, or helping clean up the Whippany River, and meet online for lively book discussions and forward-looking racial and ethnic reconciliation work. We would love to welcome you to any of these activities.

We look forward to hearing what you are seeking.

Yours in faith,
The Church of the Redeemer
