Annual Report 2025
Redeemer Family,
I want to thank the entire Redeemer family for your continued generosity in 2025! We dove deep into the word of God together, continued to expand our reach at The Alliance Restoration Center, saw another Alliance Church join the Center City Network, gave $20,000 away in one Sunday to local and global partners celebrating 15 years of His provision. We saw more salvations and baptisms, and we continued strengthening and building the discipleship process. These are just a few of many reasons we have to celebrate!
Our goal for the past year has been to really get a sense of feeling grounded in who we are as a ministry, how we disciple one another as a church, and we wanted to clarify where God may be calling us to go as it pertains to our partnership specifically Living Hope Church. I truly feel we have accomplished this goal. This past year we have had some of the most honest and healthy conversations about our church as we exist today as well as some of the challenges that have been part of our history than I think we ever have before. In the process of praying over a potential merge, God made clear that He wanted us to heal and mature through this process. For this, I am so grateful! These types of conversations we have had are one of the reasons why I felt called to lead us in this role when I first answered this call back in 2020. God is the Master Potter! I am so grateful for his shaping and molding of us in 2025!
I want to say that I am so thankful for each of our ministry leaders. We have such a gifted team of leaders who pour their whole selves into the ministry even in the face of their own crazy rhythms and schedules. THANK YOU! I also want to thank the entire church family for supporting and praying for our family as we returned from sabbatical. It was incredible to return from that time with a clear direction for us that came from a place of rest in Him.
Your Pastor, staff, governing board, and elders remain deeply committed to the vision God has given us as a church. We have been given additional clarity coming out of 2025 that I believe will lead us into what He has for us this year. We are committed to a year of MORE. To continue to grow even MORE healthy and to grow even MORE confident in our commitment as a church to God’s guidance and leading. I sense God beginning to challenge us as a church family to MORE! I continue to believe a new chapter is among us at Redeemer. With the rapid growth of the ARC, the growth of Center City Network, a deeper maturity in who we are as a ministry, and a continued focus on discipleship, I know the best is yet to come! I can’t wait to see what God will continue to do in us and through us in 2026.
Here’s to a fruitful year of ministry together,
Pastor Kevin Namur

In 2026, we’re pursuing “More” — not more activity, but more depth. Not more noise, but more grounding. We are committing ourselves to being firmly rooted in the right places so that we become a strong and steady foundation — a church where families can truly grow, flourish, and go deeper in their relationship with Jesus.
Deeply grounded in Christ and anchored in His Word. Our strength as a church won’t come from activity or momentum, but from depth. We want to grow into a people who know Scripture, practice prayer, and build our lives on truth. As we put our roots down deeper in Jesus, we believe He will make us steady, resilient, and fruitful for every season ahead.
2. More Together
A strong foundation is not built alone — it’s built in community. We want to be a church where people are known, supported, prayed for, and genuinely connected. From small groups to shared meals to moments of care and encouragement, we’re believing for deeper unity and stronger relationships across generations. When we are truly together, we reflect the heart of Christ to one another.
3. More Equipped
As our church grows, so must our readiness to serve. We’re committed to raising up leaders, developing gifts, and strengthening every ministry area so that each person can confidently step into what God has called them to do. This is about building a strong foundation of mature believers who are prepared, steady, and ready to serve wherever the Lord leads.
4. More Mission
A church that is rooted and healthy doesn’t turn inward — it lives sent. Whether across the street or across the world, we want to grow in boldness, compassion, and obedience to Jesus’ call. We believe God has positioned us to make an impact, and in 2026 we want to take intentional steps to live that out with greater faith and expectancy.

As I look forward to the rest of 2026 I am full of expectation for us to experience a new chapter of our story.
I truly believe we have been in a season of preparation for something really special!
This year, we are first committed to working hard to ensure that our church family is being cared for well. We will continue to prioritize the establishing and strengthening of our discipleship process to ensure that families who call our church their home are growing in their relationship with Jesus at all ages and in all seasons of life.
There will be new opportunities for all of us to grow deeper in our faith beyond just the Sunday morning gathering. As a result I see our church growing in new believers, depth of faith, and in our overall commitment to using our gifts for the glory of God. We will continue to center our Sunday gatherings around sound teaching of the scriptures with more open times of prayer and ministry.
I look forward to seeing the fruits of our partnerships with Urban Promise, Street Church Ministries, Teahouse Global, and Mission 2535 in the DR. Through our partnership with Center City Network we will continue to dream with hearts and hands wide open about what is possible when we all come together to impact our city and communities. The Alliance Restoration Center will accept more families onto the pantry list, more students into the ESL programs, and more children into the Soccer Academy. The movement of Alliance Churches here in our region will grow stronger in their relationships and commitment to serve the least of these alongside one another for the advancement of God’s kingdom.
I believe God is inviting us to lean in by faith this year. Not just growing deep in our relationship with Jesus but also growing deeper in our commitment to being His hands and feet.
Eager and excited for all that is in store,
Pastor Kevin
