Doctrinal Emphasis
Redeemer focuses on the promotion of the Lutheran denomination of the Christian faith, however adherents of any belief—as well as those who have no religious faith—are welcomed. Religious instruction is provided via 150 minutes of "Christian Studies" every week from years 6 to 12, as well as morning devotions in the chapel and in home rooms. Staff are expected to uphold a Christian lifestyle and most staff members are practising Christians. RLC also has a chaplaincy service which is responsible for devotions and other expressions of religious life.

Famous quotes containing the word emphasis:
“The community and family networks which helped sustain earlier generations have become scarcer for growing numbers of young parents. Those who lack links to these traditional sources of support are hard-pressed to find other resources, given the emphasis in our society on providing treatment services, rather than preventive services and support for health maintenance and well-being.”
—Bernice Weissbourd (20th century)
