Tom Ramsey Tom has been a member of The Redeemer since 2003. He comments that "Moving from the church I used to attend to Redeemer was like moving from a small college to a major university. Redeemer has so much to offer. Unlike so many places, though, Redeemer shares all it has openly. I am fortunate to have the time to take advantage of many of Redeemer’s offerings. Last summer’s trip to Malawi changed my life. An Advent Series and Meet the Propers made certain Redeemer was the right place for me. Christmas Baskets got me involved with Meals on Wheels. Meals on Wheels made my involvement in Redeemer’s Food for Friends a certainty. Foyers, Pastoral Care, Eucharistic Visitor, Acolyte, Chalice Bearer and helping in the office round out Redeemer’s offerings for me. Fortunately I discovered The Shop just before Christmas. Family and friends are a lot happier as a result!"
