Pastor AJ Call Announcement
December 16, 2021 • Pastor AJ Mastic
Pastor AJ has received a Call to serve as an Associate Pastor at Pathfinder Church in Ellisville, MO. Pastor AJ was not seeking another position, but has been open to the process, and we now invite your prayers for the Mastic family as they consider whether or not God is calling them to confirm their calling to Renewal, or be led to ministry at Pathfinder. Please watch the video below, and feel free to provide Pastor AJ with your input over the next two weeks, at http://aj.mastic@renewaldenver.org For more information on Pathfinder Church, visit http://pathfinderstl.com From the Elders at St. John's / Renewal: Brothers and sisters in Christ, We want you to know if the Lord leads AJ to take the call to Pathfinder, we are still committed to Renewal. AJ has done an excellent job leading the charge at Renewal, but taking on another campus was about being faithful to the vision that the Lord gave our church to best grow the kingdom and was not dependent on any one person. Our hope would be that AJ continues to lead the Renewal campus, but if the Lord thinks otherwise we will move forward with an interim plan while searching for the next leader of the campus. Thank you for your prayers and faithfulness during this time!

COVID-19 Update
March 13, 2020
As the Coronavirus pandemic has intensified over the past week, it has become clear that as a community whose mission is to connect people with Jesus, love our neighbors, and serve our city, we must take prudent action in order to do our part to combat the spread of the COVID-19 virus, and protect those who are most vulnerable. Normal Sunday Worship services on March 15th and 22nd have been canceled and will instead be moved online. We invite you to join us for online-only worship the next two Sundays at 10:00am, by visiting http://renewaldenver.org/live. Offerings may be made through http://renewaldenver.org/give - we thank you for your generosity and support during this time in sustaining ministry. In addition, from Sunday 3/15 through Saturday 3/28, all events and group meetings at both campuses have been canceled. Off-campus LIFEGroups are encouraged to consider postponing their meetings during this time, or consider alternate ways of connecting electronically. If your anxiety is high right now, our encouragement is to turn panic into prayer, entrusting the God who created the universe with the outcome of God-sized problems, asking for God's intervention and doing our part to be the hands and feet of Jesus to those in need during this time. Christians have been known for their courage throughout history (such as during the Plague of Cyprian), and our heart is to respond to this crisis boldy and responsibly in faith. During the next two weeks you'll also be seeing more frequent posts and live streams from St. John's and Renewal, as we seek to support one another, our neighbors, and our city. We encourage everyone to follow our Facebook page at http://fb.com/renewaldenver to receive future updates. For those who are elderly or who have a chronic illness and do not have anyone who can help you get needed essentials during this time, please contact the church office at http://church@sjdenver.org. We will do our best to connect you with someone who can help so that you do not need to take a risk venturing out. If you have been diagnosed with COVID-19, please contact Pastor AJ http://%28aj.mastic@renewaldenver.org) so that we can be aware of your situation and support you as needed. We recognize that things are changing daily and much is uncertain, and yet one thing is sure: God loves us, knows what we're going through, and is working for our good. May the "peace of God, which surpasses all understanding... guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus." - Philippians 4:7 Thank you, and please join with us as we pray for God's healing and protection for people around the world!
Stained Glass Light Time-Lapse

Enjoy this amazing day-long time-lapse of the worship center stained glass! The Body of Christ is more than a building, but our community is grateful to have a worship center which aesthetically reinforces that we honor the sacred/ancient faith, while living it out in modern ways.
