Thanks + Giving

​ Hey Everyone!

Thankful for another great Thanksgiving!  Following some of the favorite traditions in our home, we got up early and started to cook, watched some Macy’s Parade festivities, looked in a $5 newspaper at all the Black Friday deals (what happened to $.50 for a paper!), visited a friend in the hospital and ended the night with a milkshake and NFL (while Misty and Emily did some Christmas shopping).   

Earlier this week, the Renew Church Launch Team had the opportunity to bless 13 families in our community with Thanksgiving groceries and a $50 gift card to purchase a turkey and other things they might need this season.  10 of the families were from Norma Butler Bossard Elementary which is the future home of our church services starting January 27, 2019!  We are so thankful for Principal Santana’s willingness to allow us to meet in this school and we hope to continue to build on our relationship with the faculty and families of this great school.  It will be a key mission area for our church. 

Another highlight of this week was signing the contract and paying the deposit for the equipment for Renew Church.  We have been working with a company called Church on Wheels that specializes in providing the necessary equipment for churches that meet in schools, banquet halls, movie theaters, etc.  They have over 45 years experience at helping churches optimize the children’s ministry, nursery, audio, visual, lighting, signage and first impressions equipment.  I think people will love the venue and it is going to be a great place to gather for worship every Sunday.  We are recruiting 20 people for our setup and tear down team.  If you are interested in being on our setup team, it only takes about an hour on Sunday to setup and together we can make Renew Church an amazing place to worship.  Pray about helping us and we can also provide community service hours for older teens needing hours for graduation, etc. 

I am thankful for you. 
Have a wonderful weekend.

P.S. We signed up our 36th Launch Team member last weekend!  We would love to talk to you about becoming #37!  (Our goal is to have 45 adults join us on our Launch Team).
