Announcements

This Week’s Announcements:

Welcome!
If you are new here and want to know ways you can get connected head over to I’m New.

Summer Connections: 
Spring is here, but we’re already looking forward to summer! Traditionally, summer is a time when Renewal slows down due to travel and vacations. To keep the community spirit alive during this time, we’re seeking volunteers to organize “summer connection” events that foster community and connection while our Community Groups are on pause. These events can be one-time gatherings or regular meetups—whatever works best for you as a volunteer! You don’t have to do it alone either—feel free to invite your Community Group to host one together! The events will run from June through the end of August.

Some event ideas might include: a picnic or sports day at FDR or Clark Park, a hike on the Wissahickon trail, a climbing day at Callowhill, a movie night at someone’s apartment, building rooftop, or house, a game night, a worship night, a bi-weekly book club, and more! The possibilities are endless. If you have an idea in mind, we’d love to hear it! Please fill out this form and let us know what type of event you would like to host.

Community Groups:
Community Groups (CG) are smaller gatherings within our church that offer a fantastic way to get connected, grow spiritually, and find mutual support. If you’re not yet part of a CG, now is a great time to join.

To join a West Philly Community Group, please fill out this form.
To join a Center City Community Group, please fill out this form.

Diaconate Care:
If you have any felt needs (physical or spiritual), please contact the Renewal Diaconate (care@renewalchurch.org). One of our deacons or deaconesses will schedule a time to meet with you.

  • We look to offer the compassion and love of Christ as we meet and pray with you.
  • We will walk with you through a process that our Diaconate team has made to see how we can best help you.
  • We serve alongside the community of members of Renewal and our leadership team of pastors, elders, and women’s council.
