PRAIRIE
Our prairie continues to provide a beautiful natural oasis in an urban setting. It nurtures an abundance of wildlife including Sandhill cranes, deer, rabbits, hawks. Many insects, including bees and a variety of butterflies, call our prairie home.
HOSPITALITY
The Hospitality Team works to create a climate of extravagant welcome to all who come to Redeemer following the example of Jesus. While the team seeks to encourage all participants in Redeemer to extend hospitality to everyone they encounter, the team coordinates a ministry of hospitality at a number of possible connecting points including: Greeters, Connectors (persons who are available on Sundays to help people make connections with whatever they need), Parking Assistants, Ushers, Welcome Table hosts, Kiddie Keep, Coffee Fellowship, and other community meals.
EARTH CARE
The Earth Care Ministry Team seeks to inform people to be good stewards of the earth. Our major responsibilities are the prairie and the Sanctuary Garden. Additionally, we oversee the community garden. Informational updates are provided to Redeemer on recycling and where household items can be conveniently recycled.
The Stewarship Team works to educate the congregation about the spiritual basis for our giving. This process will generate testimony to the benefits of returning God's gifts of time, talent, and treasure to perform God's work in our church and throughout our community. We help develop a greater level of giving by our congregation in order to support the overall ministry and missions at Redeemer.
CELEBRATIONS & EVENTS
The Celebration and Events Team plans and implements events throughout the year to engage and celebrate the life and mission of Redeemer with the surrounding communities.
COMMUNICATIONS
The Communication Team disseminates information to the congregation and community about events, people and happenings within and around Redeemer through a variety of marketing approaches.

WORSHIP MINISTRY
Worship Ministry's work in many ways is the "doorway" into the whole life of Redeemer, in worship we meet God and one another where all are welcomed into the community of faith. Worship inspires, empowers, and guides our personal and community life. Planning for and conducting meaningful worship experiences is our principle ministry. In addition to regularly planning and conducting worship services throughout the year, our goals include finding more ways to use our worship space to create meaningful worship experiences; making use of the artistic gifts of more people including music, drama, dance, and visual arts to enhance our worship; developing different types of worship to address particular needs of different groups of people (e.g. healing services or services focused on needs of youth and young adults) outside of regular Sunday worship.
The Mission Team endeavors to be responsible stewards of God's gifts - linking the needs of the world with the time, talent and financial resources of our congregation. Ongoing activities include Our Church's Wider Mission (OCWM), Gold Can offerings, Outreach Meals, Operation Backpack school supply drive, ERAs Senior Network Holiday Gift Baskets, Habitat for Humanity, Hope House of Milwaukee, Sussex Outreach Services, and Pewaukee Food Pantry.
BUILDING & GROUNDS
The Building and Grounds Team handles tasks to do with physical upkeep of our church home including the building, grounds, and the church cemetery. These taks include cleaning, maintenance, security, upkeep and repairs, snow removal, and lawn mowing.
WELCOME TEAM
The Welcome Team follows the example of Jesus and works to create a climate of extravagant welcome to all newcomers who come to Redeemer. They guide newcomers into the life of the congregation and are instrumental in the transition of interested newcomers to becoming active participants and/or engaged members.
Congregational Care Ministry focuses on the physical, spiritual, and emotional needs of the members of Redeemer UCC. Included is In-Home Visiting Team, Greeting Card Team, Prayer Shawl Team, and Helping Hands Team.
No believer has every spiritual gift, and no single gift is given to everyone (1 Corinthians 12:27-31). Our different sets of spiritual gifts complement each other to accomplish God's purposes through the church (Romans 12:4-6; 1 Corinthians 3:6-9, 12:4-7).
We are all a gift from God! We are called to use our God-given gifts to serve others. Please consider the ways God is calling you to share your gifts. Each member or visitor is encouraged to complete the survey. This will help us, as a church, understand the unique attributes and interests of the congregation.
