OUR STORY
Redeemer Community Church is a church of the ARP. A congregation in Paducah, Kentucky, New Geneva Community Church, had been praying about planting a church in Murray, Kentucky, for several years. In the process of building a core group, a big prayer was answered when God sent Mike and Emily Chipman, to Murray to pursue careers in education. Mike’s gifting in teaching the Scriptures and experience in ministry were the final piece needed to allow Redeemer to move to become an official church plant.
Redeemer organized as a particular church on March 7, 2021.
