Welcome to Redeemer!
Serving the Greater Peoria Area community in Central Illinois since 1949, Redeemer Lutheran Church is your home where you can worship, witness, and serve Christ together as a family of believers.
-
Redeemer Lutheran Church is a member congregation of The Lutheran Church-Missouri Synod (LCMS). Visit the Missouri Synod website for more information.
-
We believe that there is no one without sin and that redemption can only be sought through Christs atoning sacrifice, apart from ourselves. So, we BELIEVE, TEACH, and CONFESS that we are saved by God’s GRACE ALONE, which is made manifest through our FAITH ALONE in Christs atoning sacrifice and that these things have been revealed to us through the SCRIPTURES ALONE, which are without error.

-
We believe Baptism is not just simply water, but water connected with God’s Word that personally delivers the gift of forgiveness that was purchased at the Cross of Christ. At Baptism, you are adopted as a child of God.
-
Redeemer believes that in communion we receive the true body and blood of Jesus Christ that is really present in the bread and wine for the forgiveness of sins. If you have been baptized, instructed in the Biblical teaching of communion, and agree with our confession of faith, please feel free to commune with us. For any questions, please make an appointment to talk with a pastor.
Communion is offered on the 1st, 3rd, and 5th Sundays of each month.
