Venture is a young adult ministry started by Church of the Redeemer in
Camden, North Carolina. The ministry is for adults (18-35).
Venture
was founded on the idea that the Christian life is one of journey; a
venture in faith, hope, and love, full of excitement, purpose, meaning,
and hardship. Venture focuses on Story; God's Epic Story in which the
Christian Venture takes place. At Venture, the Biblical narrative is
studied holistically, and the life of the believer is seen as part of
the drama of Scripture.
The mascot of Venture is the sunrise,
or the Aurora, as it is the symbol of the Coming Kingdom of God; the
destination of Venture. The second mascot is the ship, the Dawn
Treader, from C.S. Lewis' Voyage of the Dawn Treader, which carried the
its crew east towards the rising sun and symbolizes the Christian
community.
Currently, Venture meets at Muddy Waters Coffee
Shoppe on Main Street in Elizabeth City, NC Thursdays at 6:00 pm. The
time consists of Bible study, discipleship, and fellowship. Eventually,
other events, such as service projects and movie nights will be added
to Venture.
Church of the Redeemer is a member of the Anglican
Church in North America, under the guidance of Bishop John Guernsey of
the diocese of the Holy Spirit. Attending Church of the Redeemer is not
a requirement for participation in Venture.
