Our Story
Peter and Naomi Lebhar, along with their children—Esther, Hana, and Ezra—moved to Tampa on August 1, 2025.
Before moving, their family was deeply rooted in Tallahassee, Florida, where they ministered to college students through InterVarsity Christian Fellowship for twelve years.
In the summer of 2023, Peter and Naomi discerned a call to church planting in Tampa under the guidance of Bishop Alex Farmer and the Gulf Atlantic Diocese church-planting team. Peter was ordained as a priest in February 2024.
They are in awe of what the Lord has done in the short time they have been in Tampa and feel profoundly grateful to serve a God who goes before them.
Who We Are Becoming
At Redeemer Anglican, we seek to be:
Rooted in the ancient church as Christ makes all things new
Together, we worship the Lord through engaging with scripture, prayer, and partaking in the Lord’s Supper. When we come together with faith to worship the Lord, we expect to be formed into the image of Jesus. Jesus is making all things new, and we pray weekly… “Father, send us out to do the work you have given us to do, to love and serve you as faithful witnesses of Christ our Lord.”
Core Values
What is Anglican?
