Non-Emergency Pastoral Care
Theological questions or prayer
For theological questions or prayer, we encourage you to consider one or more of the following options:
- On Sundays, come forward after the worship service to speak or pray with the worship leader (who is usually a Pastor), a deacon/ess or an elder (first Sunday of the month only).
- Attend a community group for prayer and where theological questions can be worked out in community. If you are a member of a group already, please contact your community group leader or director. To join a community group, you can search for an open group online or email Susana Gough at cg@redeemer.com.
- Attend the Introduction to Redeemer membership class. This is a great place to ask theological questions.
Personal problems
For personal problems, we encourage you to consider one or more of the following options:
- If you are in a community group already, share your struggle with your group or Group Leader.
- Consider calling Redeemer Counseling Services at 212-370-0475 to speak to a counselor.
- Request to meet with a member of our pastoral staff by calling the receptionist at 212-808-4460 ext 1386 and your message will be given to the pastor on call.
