Welcome to Redeemer Lutheran Church

Welcome to the home of Redeemer Lutheran Church (LCMS)! Whether you are a longtime member, a first-time visitor, or someone exploring faith, we are delighted you have found your way to our website.

Redeemer Lutheran Church is a Christ-centered church and school located in Pensacola, Florida. Gathering together each week as a family of faith, we hold the ancient expression of the faith found in biblical-based liturgical worship and combine it with the robust teachings of God’s Word as expressed in our modern Lutheran heritage.

If you currently do not have a church home or are searching for one, we invite you to GATHER in Christ with us in worship to receive God’s gifts, to GROW in Christ with us throughout the week in God’s Word, and to GO in Christ with us each day, as we “Proclaim the Gospel Good News to All Generations” in

Thank you for visiting us online. We look forward to meeting you in person soon and welcoming you into our church family.

Our Mission

Always mindful of Christ’s mission to reach people everywhere, we are gathered together to glorify God and to be a family of believers in Christ Jesus. In Christ, we serve to strengthen the faith of our members and reach out to others through meaningful worship, quality Christian education, warm fellowship, caring concern, and loving witness.

Martin Luther’s Seal—Expressive of His Theology

Martin Luther designed The Seal of Martin Luther himself. He explained his design in the following words:

The first thing expressed in my seal is a cross, black, within the heart, to put me in mind that faith in Christ crucified saves us. “For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness.”

Now, although the cross is black, mortified, and intended to cause pain, it does not change the color of the heart, does not destroy nature — i.e., does not kill, but keeps alive. “For the just shall live by faith,” — by faith in the Savior.

But this heart is fixed upon the center of a white rose, to show that faith causes joy, consolation, and peace. The rose is white, not red, because white is the ideal color of all angels and blessed spirits.

This rose, moreover, is fixed in a sky-colored ground, to denote that such joy of faith in the spirit is but an earnest beginning of heavenly joy to come, as anticipated and held by hope, though not yet revealed.

And around this ground base is a golden ring, to signify that such bliss in heaven is endless, and more precious than all joys and treasures, since gold is the best and most precious metal. Christ, our dear Lord, He will give grace unto eternal life.

Amen
