New Assistant Pastor.
I am excited to announce that the Session has called Jason Piland to be our Assistant Pastor. Jason is completing his degree at Reformed Theological Seminary in Charlotte and will graduate at the end of May. His start date at Redeemer will be June 1st. Below is a brief bio of Jason and Erika as well as a photo of them with their son Wesley. We are thankful to God for His goodness in answering our prayers and providing such a godly and gifted man.
Jason was raised in North Carolina, but he moved to Nashville, Tennessee for college and lived there for nine years. He earned Bachelor’s and J.D. degrees from Belmont University. After briefly practicing law, he served on staff at Covenant PCA in Nashville as the Director of Young Adults Ministries, in part to help Jason, Erika, and the church discern whether Jason should pursue pastoral ministry. In 2016, he began studies at Reformed Theological Seminary in Charlotte and began serving at Ballantyne Presbyterian Church (ARP) as the Pastoral Assistant. He plans to graduate with his Master’s of Divinity in May. Erika spent many formative years in Stow, but her family moved to Florida just before her sixth grade. After graduating from the University of Florida with a Bachelor’s degree, she began work on her J.D. at Belmont University in Nashville. She has practiced law since 2014, primarily in the areas of estate planning, probate, and real estate. She currently works as an attorney part time for Ark Title Group in Charlotte. Jason and Erika married in 2012, and they have one son, Wesley, who was born in June of 2017. Jason and Erika are thrilled to be joining the Redeemer family this June and eagerly look forward to getting to know the congregation!

Normally, no special skills are required. The Deacons ask that you prayerfully and sacrificially consider joining us. The dates for this year are, 23 February, 18 May, 13 July, 19 October (they are listed on the church calendar for your convenience) and any updates will be in the announcements in the bulletin and here on the website. A partial list of tasks is listed here. Also, if you’re unable to attend on the scheduled dates you can come anytime you’re available (you can gain entry by the key code on the east side of the building).
