Hi there!
We are ecstatic about our Back 2 School event this Sunday at Renew!  We have 150 backpacks stuffed full of supplies and we can’t wait to bless families in our community!  Our Homestead Campus also has 175 bags to give away!  

Please forward this to anyone you might know and join us on Sunday (we are working on a special surprise for our kids going back to school- you have got to come to find out what it is!)
​
See you Sunday!

Hi there!​
"It's time."

The author of Ecclesiastes writes in Ecclesiastes 3:1 . . .
 “There is a time for everything, and a season for every activity under the heavens.”

Every January and August, we enter into a season of prayer and fasting. We do this to seek God first and to rely on him more fully.  If you sense God has more for your life, 21 Days of Prayer & Fasting is a great place to start believing Him for all that He has for you. As you practice seeking Him first, He will move on your behalf like never before. You will start to see the power of prayer impact your relationships, work, family, and every area of your life. We would love for you to be part of 21 Days of Prayer & Fasting.

How do you get involved? Join us for our Spiritual Growth series we are calling, “Unlocked”.  Consider how you will fast and pray during the 21 Days, August 7-27th. Follow along with Renew Church through our 21 Day Prayer Guide, Weekday Video Devotionals and join us for a Special Nights of Worship August 7th, 14th and 21st at 7:00 PM. (We are also planning a baptism on August 14.)

TIMING OF A FAST
This fast is part of 21 Days of Prayer, a season of focused prayer and fasting as a church. During this season of 21 Days of Prayer, we encourage fasting as a spiritual next step that can bring clarity and revelation into your life.

You can also choose to fast at other times of the year as you seek God and you may also choose to fast at other times during the year for your own spiritual development.

It’s very typical to fast a single meal, a whole day, or three days or more. The timing of your fast is not as important as the strength of your focus on God as you fast.

For more information on the importance of fasting and a personal guide to how to fast, click this link from CRU:  https://www.cru.org/us/en/train-and-grow/spiritual-growth/fasting/personal-guide-to-fasting.html

See you Sunday!

Hi there!
I have the opportunity to pray and spend time with some of the guys from Hope Center every week and we are so blessed to have them as part of our church family.  They faithfully attend Renew and several come two days per week to volunteer their time to clean the church and do additional projects.  One of the projects they did this summer was to redo the parking lot including new sealer and repainting of the parking spaces and curbs.  The labor cost for this project would have been nearly $7000!

This Sunday we are celebrating “Hope Sunday” at Renew!  This is a special service to give you an opportunity to learn about the Hope Center that Renew Church sponsors and meet our leaders and some of our residents! (Also, the Hope Center is hosting a Kickball Game at their residence on Saturday 7/30 at 10:30am-  they will have plenty of food and fun! Address:  21800 SW 232 St. Miami, FL 33170)  

On another note, begin preparing your heart for our Spiritual Emphasis series at Renew. Unlocked starts on August 7 and we will have 3 nights of worship, Baptism, a daily devotional plan, weekday devotional videos and we are encouraging everyone to participate in our 21 days of prayer and fasting.  Begin preparing your heart now for what you want to see God do in your life during this series and what you can give up during the fast.    

Finally, check out the photo of the book bags we received for our Back 2 School Event on 8/14!  If you know someone that could use some extra help with school supplies- be sure to invite them for this special day!

Hi there!
Can you believe that summer is almost over?  Time is passing quickly but we are excited for what the future holds!  Our Directors met last week and came up with a plan to collect School Supplies to help families in our community.  We created a list of items that students need as they return to school and we sent that home on Sunday- this is a tangible way for our church to get involved in helping us give back.  If you didn’t get the list but would like to participate, you can purchase the following supplies and we will distribute on “Back 2 School Sunday” on August 14.  We will also have a time of prayer during the service for all of our students/teachers going back to school!  

Here is a list of those items we are collecting: 

• 24 Pack Crayons
• 12 Pack Colored Pencils
• Washable Markers
• Pack of Pencils
• Pencil Sharpener
• Glue Sticks
• Erasers
• Blunt ended scissors
• Folders with prongs
• Ruler
• Highlighter
• Composition Notebooks
• College Ruled Paper
• Red, Blue, Black Pens

Check this Out! After coming up with a plan to bless our kids families for back to school, Pastor Ricardo reached out to a friend that is in management at South State Bank.  He told them of our need and they agreed to donate 150 Backpacks full of supplies to Renew Church for our Back to School Sunday AND they invited the local Kiwanis Club to to participate and we received 48 more backpacks!  What a blessing!  

If you know someone that needs help with school supplies, be sure to forward them this email and invite them to Renew Church (“Back 2 School Sunday” will take place at both campuses on August 14.)

Finally, don’t miss the final Sunday of our “God Lies” Series.  Have you ever heard someone say, “We’re all going the same place anyway” OR “All Roads Lead to Heaven”?  Join me this week as we look at what Jesus says about this topic.

See you this weekend!

Hi there!
My family and I had a great time on our summer vacation the last couple of weeks!  We drove to Oklahoma where we got to spend time with some of our family in Oklahoma City as well as a few days at my brother’s lake house just hanging out!  It was a great time but as I often say, “It’s great to get away and even better to come home!”

I can’t tell you enough how proud I am of our team!  Everyone stepped up and made it possible for us to get away with no worries of how things would go in my absence… In fact, it seems to go better when I’m gone! :) A huge thanks to Carlos Nieves and Zabrina Grillo for bringing powerful messages while I was away.  I watched online and was in awe of the powerful Word that they brought! Great job! 

Being away for a few weeks is always good because it allows me to step out of my routines and seek the Lord for what He is planning in the future.  One of the things we are planning for August is a powerful new sermon series entitled, “Unlocked”.  This will be a spiritual emphasis series on truly relying on the Holy Spirit in all areas of our life.  We have some really special things planned including 21 Days of Prayer and Fasting, 3 special nights of Worship and a daily devotion plan that we will put together during the series.  

Please begin now to prepare you heart for what God wants to do in your life.  I truly believe this could be a life changing season for our church! 

On another note, don’t miss this Sunday.  I’m excited to preach week 3 of “God Lies”.  My message is entitled, “God helps those who help themselves”.  Is this biblical?  We will talk about it this Sunday!

See you this weekend!

Hi there!
Have you ever had one of those days that stand out in your memory as a day you will never forget?  Of course, significant days in your life like a birth or death, graduation or getting a new job or getting engaged- those are days you will never forget.  But I have a weird memory from July 8, 2021 that I will never forget.  

My dad used to tell my 3 brothers and I that he would leave us two things when he died: #1 The understanding and example of what it means to have a personal relationship with God and #2 The ability to work.

Most of you know that my dad died in September of last year but it was one year ago today that stands out to me.  My dad was in his 70’s and retired but not really.  He wasn’t the type that could sit at home and watch television or go play golf.  He liked to do things with the time that he had.  Last summer, we came to Oklahoma for a visit and on this day (7/8/21) at about 7am he arranged to pick me up to spend the day with him as he helped my brother with some “little tasks” at his construction company.  

Here are a few of the things we did that day:

-Picked up a 40’ Semi from the equipment yard and took it to the downtown warehouse.  (My dad knew how to drive a 18 Wheeler and if he ever got pulled over his Belize Driver’s license is what certified him to drive it :)  Not only did he know how to drive it but he also knew how to back it.  I remember him trying to put this 10’ Wide trailer in about a 11’ opening and thinking, “This isn’t going to work”.  But it did! 

-We did some reorganizing of materials at the warehouse.  I’m not sure the details of this, I just remember watching my dad zip around on a forklift and putting things up and shifting things around.  (My dad also knew how to drive a forklift :)

-We went looking for his phone.  I think my dad would lose his phone about once a day (or more. Lol) He was always in a hurry and in his haste he would sometimes set his phone down… On this particular day he had left it at a Home Depot and when we tracked it down- a cashier picked it up and kept it for him. 

-We fixed a lawn tractor tire.  This required getting a trailer and tracking down the only tire shop in town that carried this particular mower tire.  

-We loaded steel on a trailer at the equipment yard.  Of all the jobs we did that day- this is the one that stands out the most.  It was over 100 degrees at this point in the day and my dad and I are in this yard trying to balance these 15’ steel plates on the back of a trailer in such a way to make sure the load will be able to be transported properly on the trailer.  The materials weighed thousands of pounds and the area we were working in was really tight as we worked around other trucks and equipment and materials. My dad was using a special type of forklift with a chain to pick up the material and it had to be perfectly balanced to lift it off the ground.  

I remember thinking this wasn’t going to work.  

I remember thinking I was going to pass out (the sun was blazing on that day and my jeans were soaked in sweat).  

I remember thinking, “I’m on vacation- what am I doing? I don’t want to do this!” 

In the end, we loaded the materials onto the trailer and finished the job.  I couldn’t be done soon enough and when we finished the day I told my wife that was the hardest (manual labor) I had worked in a long time and I was glad it was over.

Looking back many times over the year, I think back to this day because this was the last full day that my dad and I spent on earth together.  And although I didn’t love the work, I loved who I did it with.  I wish I had another 100 degree day to spend with him.  

My dad kept his word.  He left me with the understanding and example of what it means to have a personal relationship with God AND he showed me what it looks like to work.  

Thanks for letting me share.  
Looking Up,
Pastor Treavor

Hi there!
​Check out this quick video from last week at Teen Camp in Lake Placid!  Our teens had an amazing time together and 4 students from Renew got baptized this past weekend!  Congratulations, we are so proud of you! 

Also, don’t miss our new sermon series that kicks off this weekend at Renew.  Did God really say that? “God Lies” is a closer look into some of the cliches that Christians say that might not be as accurate as we think. 

Have a safe and happy 4th of July!

Hi there!​
This is Emily here jumping in for this week's blog from Teen Camp! Teen Camp has been so good the last few days and it is all because of you!

We can't wait to come back and share how teen camp was! 

This Sunday is Misfit Takeover! Our teens are taking over the service and sharing their experience from teen camp! It's going to be amazing! We will also be having baptism, so if you are interested in taking the next step in your faith let us know! Click Here!

Hi there!
We are thanking God for the Talent Show last Friday! The kids brought their talents, art and some amazing desserts! Our goal for the fundraiser was $15,000 to send 50 people to Summer Camp.  We didn’t raise $15,000…Instead, we were able to raise $20,000! Our students and leaders are amazed and excited for what you did for them!  It is those kind of events that remind me that we are living out our core value, “We pursue the next generation”.  We are believing for a powerful week at camp next week and that wouldn't have been possible without your help! If you have a teenager in 6th grade through 12th grade that wants to go, let us know! Click here to register for Camp 2022.

Also, reminder, Father's Day is this Sunday! We are going to have a Shish-ka-Bar, Car Show and one of our dads will win a BBQ Smoker!   Also, if you or someone you know has a car you would be willing to put in our Show- please contact Stephanie Santos at 305-972-3970!  Its going to be fun! Invite a dad to join you! 

Finally, Small Groups started this week.  If you are looking for a small group to join for the summer- its not too late to join.  Click here for a list of times/locations.

See you this weekend!

Hi there!
We are thanking God that we were spared from any major damage from the storm last weekend and we know that there were some people in our community that are really thankful for the much needed rain!  

As most of you know, the weather forced our youth to postpone the Misfit Talent Show/Dinner and Pastor Mikey and his team were really concerned as they are trying to raise $15,000 to send 50 people to camp.   The GREAT NEWS is that its not too late to join us this Friday at 6:30pm! I know of several people that could not attend last week and we would love it if you would come this weekend to be a part- its going to be a great time! Please click this link to RSVP or you can call Pastor Mikey directly if you would like to donate a dessert for the Auction at 786-486-2700.    

Also this Sunday, RC Kids is planning an awesome day called, “Color Me Bold”.  The kids will have a super fun paint event with washable paints and popsicles. Please have your kids wear clothes that are okay to get paint on them… I think they are going to love it! 

Finally, Father’s Day is June 19!  We are going to have a Shish-ka-Bar, Car Show and one lucky dad will win a BBQ Smoker!   Also, if you or someone you know has a car you would be willing to put in our Show- please contact Stephanie Santos at 305-972-3970!  Its going to be fun! Invite a dad to join you!
