SEPTEMBER 27—Anniversary
It's the third anniversary of SEPA Synod locking the members of Redeemer Lutheran Church out of the sanctuary where they worshiped since 1909. We note the occasion with the publication of our Triennial Report. Find out how the people of Redeemer have continued and GROWN their ministry without a building and without SEPA. Read our report. Our ministry is active, while the doors of our church home have remained locked to everyone in East Falls.Redeemer’s 2012 Triennial Report
The Lutheran Grinch
Last year it was THREE!
Better than stealing from under a tree!
This year it's FOUR!
How many more?
I haven't a clue
What to do
With my wares.
It bothers me nay!
In the ELCA,
not a praying soul cares!FREE Book and Study Guide

Redeemer’s Prayer
We were all once strangers, the weakest, the outcasts, until someone came to our defense, included us, empowered us, reconciled us (1 Cor. 2; Eph. 2).

Questions for SEPA
If SEPA’s oft-stated passion is to have a Word and Sacrament church on the corner of Midvale and Conrad, why don’t they open a church?
Why did SEPA work for a decade to destroy the church that had been there, supporting SEPA, for a century?
Why is SEPA making overtures to the community (where the members they evicted still live), if they already know their goal is to open a church?
Why has the property been empty for two years when there were plans in place -- made by members of the community with an interest in SEPA's mission -- which could have been earning revenue for the last two years?Affiliates

On Isaiah 30:15b
Be calm. Wait. Wait. Commit your cause to God. He will make it succeed. Look for Him a little at a time. Wait. Wait. But since this waiting seems long to the flesh and appears like death, the flesh always wavers. But keep faith. Patience will overcome wickedness.
—Martin Luther-
