Retreats
Redeemer members have the opportunity to participate in several retreats throughout the year. Retreats are also a terrific opportunity to invite your friends along to experience our community of faith for themselves. Some retreats take place at Lutheranch which is less than 90 minutes away from most of Metro Atlanta. Other common retreat locations all have been within a five-hour drive of the church.
