Core Values and Spiritual Life

Faith in Everyday Life at Redeemer

At Redeemer School & Preschool, students grow in both knowledge and faith each day. From daily classroom prayers and weekly chapel to joyful birthday blessings and Jesus Time, our community is rooted in Christ. We are proud to serve Austin families with a Christ-centered education that combines academic excellence and spiritual life.

Everyday Rhythms of Faith

• Daily Prayer – Teachers and students pause throughout the day to pray together, whether giving thanks before a meal or asking God’s help to calm nerves before a test.

• Jesus Time – Each class gathers daily to hear God’s Word, sing songs, and reflect on how faith connects to their lives.

• Celebrations – Birthdays are marked with songs and blessings, reminding every child that they are a precious gift from God.

• Pledges – Each morning begins with pledges, including the pledge to the Christian flag, grounding our community in both faith and citizenship.

• Chapel Services – Age-appropriate chapel services are held for early childhood, elementary, and middle school students each week. Parents are always welcome to worship with us. 

These simple but meaningful traditions help create a joyful rhythm of faith that students carry with them far beyond Redeemer.

Spiritual Life

Redeemer is dedicated to meeting the needs of our community and changing lives through Jesus Christ. We combine simple, life-focused messages, a welcoming atmosphere, and a diverse set of ministries to help students grow in their faith.

Faith development is integrated into all areas of our curriculum. Students are discipled to know God’s grace for them and guided to show love and forgiveness to others. Each class has daily devotional or faith development time as well as prayer. Serving others to show them the love of Jesus is also regularly incorporated into lessons and activities.

Statement of Faith

We believe that God showed His true love for us by sending His Son, Jesus Christ, to be the perfect sacrifice for our sins, so that we could become God’s children.

We believe God is one God in three persons: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. We accept the Holy Bible as the true Word of God. Through an understanding of His Word and His active influence in our daily lives, God works to establish a loving and caring relationship with us.

We believe that God’s Word is the basis of all theological knowledge. This tenet of our faith is the fundamental truth of Sola Scriptura or Scripture Alone. We want the children in our school to embrace the truths that are found in the Bible. We believe the focus of the entire Bible is Jesus Christ, true God and true man, who lived on earth with real people, living in an actual time in history.

We believe that sinners are saved by God’s grace alone, through faith alone, for the sake of Christ alone. God loves us so much that He washes away our sins through the suffering and death of Jesus Christ. We will share in His resurrection, thanks to His love and grace.

The Sacraments of Baptism and Holy Communion are a visible means of God’s forgiveness of our sin and acceptance into His family. Through worship, the Sacraments, prayer, Bible study, and Christian fellowship we are nurtured and strengthened in our Christian life and can continuously build our faith.

A Word from Our Children's & Youth Ministry

At Redeemer, spiritual life is not only a school experience but part of a larger church family. Our Children’s Ministry and Youth Ministry partner with Redeemer School to help kids know Jesus in everyday, joyful ways.

Each week, children gather for age-appropriate chapel, share in Jesus Time with their teachers, and grow in their understanding of God’s love. Beyond the classroom, our church offers opportunities like Sunday morning kids’ worship, Bible adventure classes, family events, and service projects. These moments help children see that faith is not only for school hours but a lifelong journey of growing with God.

Whether your family is deeply rooted in faith or just beginning to explore, our ministry welcomes you. We believe every child is a beloved child of God, and we want them to know they are seen, known, and valued here.
