Our annual celebration of Redeemer Month comes in many forms this year. First and foremost, we are eager to hear how you have been blessed by beauty.
Join the conversation and share how you've been blessed by beauty.
“The beauty of creation, the beauty of relationships, the beauty of diversity, the beauty of peace, the beauty of good news in times of distress, the beauty of a shared charism, spirituality and mission, the beauty of hope restored in the midst of human struggle as we tend to those within our care.” Sr. Anita Bolton
Also, we're asking for your help to support Healthy Families, a program that helps parents in our New Jersey service area. This year they need diapers and baby wipes. Donate today to help.
Prayer services are being scheduled through September to celebrate Redeemer Month. Watch Connect and this page for updated details.
Every year, a Redeemer Month theme is chosen and incorporated in various ways throughout Redeemer Health. This year’s theme is “Blessed by Beauty.” This theme was chosen mindful of many challenges that Redeemer Health is facing in 2023 as well as the sad realities of our city, country, and world. The beauty of God’s healing love and mercy brings us hope and light in the midst of darkness.
Each year the Redeemer Month theme is chosen and incorporated into a prayer service which is offered at many locations throughout Redeemer Health. Leaders and staff are encouraged to celebrate Redeemer Month in ways that are meaningful, enjoyable, and collaborative.

For more than 30 years, Redeemer Month, and formerly Redeemer Week, has been celebrated at Redeemer Health. Redeemer Month is a special time to be mindful of and grateful to Jesus the Redeemer, the one whose name Redeemer Health and the Sisters of the Redeemer are privileged to bear. United in our call to serve in the Catholic Health Care ministry, we are witness to the healing ministry of Jesus. We reverence the sacredness of life and the beauty of religious, ethnic, and cultural diversity.
During Redeemer Month the Sisters of the Redeemer express gratitude for the dedication and commitment of each person carrying out Redeemer Health’s mission to care, comfort, and heal. It is a time for everyone in the Redeemer Family to celebrate the collaborative efforts and experiences that support the mission and values of Redeemer Health.
Traditionally, Redeemer Month was celebrated in May and is now being celebrated in September. September is important to the heritage and legacy of the Sisters of the Redeemer. September 9 was selected by the Vatican as the official Feast Day of Blessed Alphonse Maria Eppinger, Founder of the Sisters of the Redeemer. This special day is recognized throughout the world as it marks the anniversary of Blessed Alphonse Maria’s birth in Niederbronn, France, in 1814.
