Background
on Purpose of this Website
This site was created for all of us who - at some
point in our faith journey - resided or worshipped as the
Church of the Redeemer, Episcopal in Houston, or within a
community which arose from that church including the "Community of
Celebration" sites in UK & US, or at "Post Green": an existing
UK community that partnered with Celebration in the mid-1970s.
The
website is intended to become a growing archive of photos and stories
about our life together over the decades from mid-60s until now. It
was launched at a time when Redeemer's congregation learned that it had
to move out of buildings that had been their spiritual home base for
over half-a-century; and when the "Community of
Celebration" in Aliquippa are now taking in no new permanent members. We collect
all these photos and stories of shared
memories not only for each other, but also for our friends and
relatives, especially for our kids and grand-kids.
"Celebration" in Aliquippa, PA are an
Episcopalian religious order, observing a Benedictine
rule of life: origin was in the
Anglican
church in UK & Scotland. Click
here to buy their music.
