Renewal Groups & Communities

What are Renewal Groups and Communities?

Our model is rooted in Acts 2, where the early church devoted themselves to the apostles' teaching, fellowship, breaking bread, and prayer. That's the vision we're chasing. To that end, we offer both ongoing communities and time-bounded small groups throughout the year. Use the buttons below to get started and find out more.

Active Communities

Monday Renewal Community at Kindred Coffee Roasters

6AM - 7AM Leader: Patrick Harms

We create time to check in, challenge, and start the week.

Women's Renewal Community

2PM - 4PM Leaders: Sherry Hammer and Robanne Burns

We are a community of women who study God's word, deepen our relationship with the Lord, build relationship with each other, support each other, point each other to Jesus, and pray for each other during group time, and throughout the week. Please note: no childcare provided.

Thursday North West Chicago

7PM - 9PM Leaders: Ridge and Robanne Burns

We spend time as a group investing in our faith and friendship over snacks, book discussion and time together in prayer.

Friday Men's Hybrid Group (Virtual and In Person)

Starts October 7:30AM - 8:30AM Leader: Keith Draper

Our group is focusing on the Gospels (Matthew, Mark, Luke and John), with bite-sized readings from a book written by the team who created The Chosen television series.

Sunday North West Chicago

12:30PM - 2:30PM Leader: Julia Marsden

Our Renewal Community meets after church for a potluck lunch and then gathers for a Bible or book study. We meet year-round, but allow for more time for fellowship and other activities during the summer months. We also have additional men's/women's gatherings throughout the year!

South West Chicago (Rotating locations)

4PM Leaders: Dave Leonard and Molly Denton

Our group meets to encourage each other in faith while fostering a safe space of fellowship support and belonging. Come with your hard questions, church hurt, or difficult question. You are welcome here.
