Our History

This church was organized on September 23, 1863, by the Right Reverend Stephen Elliott, the first Bishop of Georgia. Its original members included two Greensboro families and several women who had migrated inland from Charleston and Savannah to escape the Civil War. The Gothic Revival-styled building was designed and built in 1868 by J. G. Barnwell of Rome, Georgia. The first rector was the Reverend Joshua Knowles, who led the church for nineteen years. Knowles and his wife are buried in the garden on the north side of the church which is now the Redeemer Remembrance Garden. The Episcopal Church of the Redeemer is listed on the National Register of Historic Places. Redeemer is unique in never having closed its doors since 1868; it is a rare and intact example of Gothic architecture in the South and remains the only Episcopal church in Greene County, Georgia.

Knowles Remembrance Garden

Throughout the history of Christianity, the Church has provided for burial within churchyards or crypts.  This ancient tradition is consistent with the Church’s belief in a decent and reverent burial for all.  For family and friends, comfort may be drawn from interment on consecrated church property. While in modern times the traditional churchyard has disappeared as an actively used place of burial, Church of the Redeemer is able to provide a consecrated place for the interment of ash remains of Redeemer members and their families in the Knowles Remembrance Garden, a landscaped area on the north side of the church building.
