- Bollywood Dance – As a way for our Renewal Sisters of all age groups to come together, we invite you to join us for a Bollywood Dance session on Saturday, November 22nd from 1-3pm upstairs on the 2nd floor. It will be a chance to have fun and meet new people. Our very own sister, Ching Sullivan, will provide instructions. Come wearing comfortable clothes and bring a snack to share. RSVP using the QR code.
- Christmas Choir! Mark your calendars! Our annual Lessons & Carols Service is coming up on Sunday, December 7, 2025. This year, the worship team is bringing back a beloved tradition — inviting our members and regular attendees to join the Christmas Choir! There will be mandatory rehearsals on Saturday, December 6th and Sunday, December 7th before service. If you enjoy singing and can carry a tune, we’d love for you to be part of this special service! Please fill out the interest form by Sunday, November 16 to participate.
- Our annual Lessons & Carols Service is coming up on Sunday, December 7th. This service is a Christmas celebration where we sing Christmas carols and hear the beautiful stories of Jesus’ birth in a variety of languages from both members of our congregation and missionary families. We will also serve refreshments upstairs after the service. We invite our members who would like to read scripture passages in a language other than English, to fill out the interest form by Nov 23. And if you are willing to bring a refreshment to share, there is a sign up sheet linked to the interest form as well.
- Community Groups Community Groups meet throughout the week in various locations and are meant to encourage fellowship, love and connection within our church and neighborhood communities and help us apply our faith in practical ways. Some of our groups are pretty full, so we are also looking for Renewal Members to consider leading a group! If you have any questions or interest in our CGs, please sign up or head to our Welcome Table to speak with someone after the service.
- Care for the Fordes As many of you have heard, the Forde family is walking through an incredibly difficult season. Isaac and Claudia’s 3 year old daughter Ilona was diagnosed with acute lymphoblastic leukemia. You can sign up to help with their Meal Train and/or you can give to the Forde family care fund on Renewal’s giving page. You can select “Forde Family” in the dropdown menu. Finally, there is a GoFundMe page. This is suitable for people who aren’t connected to Renewal. We are also organizing a group to assist with occasional childcare and household tasks. If you’re interested in helping, please reach out to Joanna Hess at joannaflee@gmail.com.

Pray With Us
Missionary Family: The K’s
The K family is serving in East Asia where they run an education company and are engaged in church planting, both in the city and in a remote village in the mountains. They are partnering with local apple farmers there to help sell their apples, teaching English and serving as church planters. Their time is spent balancing these two church planting projects, managing the education company, and homeschooling their 5-year-old daughter.
- As in every church, there are a few difficult situations in their house church. Please pray for wisdom, patience, and love as they walk alongside these struggling members.
- Their outreach efforts in the village (using English tutoring) have been going well, but they are hoping to establish deeper connections with locals. Pray for God to open doors.
