Children in Worship
At Church of the Redeemer, we strive to invite children of all ages to participate in worship. We might offer a children’s message during worship and invite children to participate as they are able.
All children receive a Worship bag, with crafts, a sermon word search, and a small assignment related to the current worship. The bag also includes crayons and a colouring book, along with some fun silent toys.
We also have a children’s table in the back of the sanctuary where children of all ages can take a break during worship.
Youth at Redeemer
Youth at Church of the Redeemer are invited to participate in all aspects of adult education and worship, including attending church services and participating in worship as liturgist or in the choir. Redeemer youth have been involved in many of our mission and social justice projects.
Child Protection Policy
The purpose of the Child Protection Policy of the Church of the Redeemer is to:
- Provide procedures specifically designed to protect children, youth, church staff and volunteers associated with the ministries of the church.
- Establish appropriate ways of responding to alleged, reported, or suspected incidents of abuse.
- Be in a compassionate ministry with all affected persons – the alleged victim, the alleged victim’s family, the accused, the accused’s family, and the church family.
