Childrens Ministries

Women’s Ministries

We love children here at Renew Church! Kids are a gift from God, and we value them greatly. It is our goal to include them in learning the Gospel message of Jesus, but we also understand that youngsters of various ages learn at different paces and in different ways.

Our Children’s Ministries are set up to offer age-appropriate learning for your kids that is safe, edifying, and most of all – fun! All of our nursery and children’s church volunteers are passionate about teaching the Word of God in ways that are interactive and memorable. Children are free to learn at their own pace in our Children’s Church while you attend our Sunday morning services, so we encourage you to bring them along!

Our ladies love to get together, and you’re invited! This is a great opportunity for you to connect with others and form new friendships.

Our Ladies’ Bible Studies are geared specifically toward topics that impact women on a day-to-day basis. We come together to support one another and grow together in the Lord during our studies. Fun events include spa days, beauty days, and luncheons. The women at Renew are warm, inviting, and welcoming and we delight in getting to know new people. Won’t you join us?

Bible Study:

Our current Bible Study is based on the book “Don’t Give the Enemy a Seat at Your Table” (by Louie Giglio). This study began on Wednesday, March 2nd, 2022. We are meeting at the church in the fireside area every other Wednesday from this date. Each gathering will begin at 6:15PM and will go until about 7:45PM.

This study includes a video to begin each lesson, followed by a time of discussion and prayer. There is also a book ($14) and a study guide ($9) to go along with the lessons that you can purchase from Renew Church or from your favorite bookstore.

Hurts, hang-ups and habits can get in the way of our relationships with God and others. We all have them. The good news is that we don’t have to let them define us or hinder us from having the best life possible.

Celebrate Recovery meets weekly on Monday evenings. We invite you to join us for lessons on how to navigate through the 12-steps to Recovery… God’s way. Each meeting involves small group time after the lessons that are gender-specific. In these groups, everyone is given the opportunity to share and receive support.

Community is where true healing begins. All are welcome to attend.

Learn more by visiting our Celebrate Recovery page.

God’s Word is the living word.

It’s why we love to get together and study it together. Much can be learned from discussing the Bible with other people, especially those who are followers of Jesus.

It doesn’t matter to us if you are new to the Bible, have never read it, or are a seasoned scholar in God’s Word… we will welcome you regardless of your level of scriptural experience.
