Spring Gathering Encourages Women

Redeemer Presbyterian Church, Charleston, SC, Palmetto PresWIC, Church Creek PCAWomen from Redeemer Presbyterian Church and other PCA churches in the Palmetto Presbytery gathered for their annual Spring Gathering last Saturday, March 22 at Church Creek Presbyterian Church in Charleston, SC. Here are some impressions from Redeemer women about the the morning’s event:

What I loved most about it was the opportunity to fellowship, build bridges with, and encourage other women from our own denomination! –Leslie

It was a great time of gathering with other women in our community that share a joy to learn more about the Word of God. I personally met some new women and was very blessed by their friendliness and encouragement. –Amanda

Mark your calendars for our next women’s fellowship event: A double baby shower of blessings for two dear women from the North Area (Wednesday) Community Group on Friday evening, April 24. Invitations coming soon!

Walk for Water This Weekend

Redeemer Presbyterian Church, Charleston, SC, Water Missions InternationalContribute to a Redeemer team or join us in our Walk for Water this Saturday, March 21 downtown beginning at Brittlebank Park. Redeemer has the privilege of supporting a local charity, Charleston’s own Water Missions International! Redeemer has two groups registered to walk, and each team is accepting additional walkers and donations now.

The Downtown Community Group formed the first team (donate or join here), and then threw down the gauntlet to the other community groups. In response another team formed–aptly named “not the Downtown CG” (donate or join here). So pick your side, throw your support behind one (or both) of these Redeemer teams, and donate to a great charity that provides not just clean drinking water to needy communities around the world but also Living Water.

Check out pictures from last year’s event.

Great Day for 8th Annual Walk for Water

Redeemer Presbyterian Church, Charleston, SC Water Missions InternationalOn World Water Day March 22, Redeemer’s team of 13 adults, 2 kids, and 2 dogs joined other teams from around the Lowcountry for Water Missions International‘s 8th annual Walk for Water. (There’s still time to contribute to our team’s goal.) We enjoyed a beautiful spring day, as we walked the streets of downtown Charleston. We carried buckets to simulate the long walk to fetch water that many around the world must take each day.

Redeemer Forms Walk for Water Team

Walk for Water, Water Missions International 2013To help provide sustainable sources of clean water around the world, Redeemer will participate in Water Missions International‘s Walk for Water event. This family-friendly, dog-friendly 3.5-mile walk will start at Cannon Park at 9 am on Saturday, March 22 and end at White Point Garden. Register to join the Redeemer team, or make a donation in support of our team. Our own Lauren Martin is helping captain our team, and she enjoys this annual event:

I love participating in the Walk for Water because it is a great time for fellowship and exercise in a beautiful part of downtown and a chance to take a walk in someone else’s shoes. The walk gives you just a little taste of what life is like for many people in other parts of the world who have to walk several miles each day for water. You fill a bucket with dirty water, and carrying it really makes you think about what life would be like without a clean or convenient water source. Just when you start feeling hopeless about the situation, you find yourself at the finish line and pour your water into the purification system that your registration fee is helping to take to countries all over the world.

Enjoy our pictures from last year’s Walk for Water, and make plans to join in the fun for this worthy cause!
