ABOUT Redemption

Welcome! We are a warm and open group of imperfect people who support each other as we follow the teaching and example of Jesus Christ through worship, learning, and service.

 

We have been a resource and a landmark in the Locust Point community of Baltimore for over a century. We hope that you receive spiritual nourishment and inspiration among us, we feel your presence here is a gift to us as well. Whether you join us for a single service or a lifetime, your participation, your passion, and your unique point of view makes us a more whole and dynamic church.

 

We are part of the Episcopal Church, a radically inclusive denomination that observes the most beautiful and ancient rituals of the church, while coming together to hear the voice of God in this new century.

What We Believe:

We, Episcopalians, believe in a loving, liberating, and life-giving God: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. As constituent members of the Anglican Communion in the United States, we are descendants of and partners with the Church of England and the Scottish Episcopal Church, and are part of the third largest group of Christians in the world.

We believe in following the teachings of Jesus Christ, whose life, death, and resurrection saved the world.

 

We have a legacy of inclusion, aspiring to tell and exemplify God’s love for every human being; women and men serve as bishops, priests, and deacons in our church. Laypeople and clergy cooperate as leaders at all levels of our church. Leadership is a gift from God, and can be expressed by all people in our church, regardless of sexual identity or orientation.

We believe that God loves you – no exceptions.

Rev. Emily E. Ewing's pronouns are they/them/their (what does this mean?). They dedicate their life to justice work locally and globally, revels in creativity and art, and is fed by Lutheran theological geekiness. They are a proud member of Proclaim, a program of Extraordinary Lutheran Ministries, and they curated www.queerying.org, a blog that queers and queries weekly bible texts.  When not serving Salem and Redemption, they co-host both Nerds At Church, a podcast connecting weekly bible readings with all things nerdery, and Horror Nerds At Church, a podcast exploring horror and faith.

 

Pastor Emily has served as Pastor, Mission Developer, Chaplain, and Social Justice Pastor in Utah, Minnesota, Iowa, and now here in Baltimore.
