What We Believe

We are a church that believes in remaining Christ Centered through worship, prayers and stewardship, life groups, and our special events and retreats.

Through worship we bring the centrality of Christ to all generations. We focus on praising God through songs, words, and celebration of the liturgical calendar. We also focus on sermons that support Biblical themes that encourages the body and gives sound Biblical principles for practical applications in our daily life.

We believe in encouraging our congregation in prayer, stewardship and daily devotions, and living out the Lord’s prayer every day. We also strive to meet the prayer needs of one another. Our life groups focus on God’s Word and creating discipling relationships. We also provide special retreats and events to encourage personal revival and meditation with the hopes of drawing each individual closer to God.

Renewal SGV desires to follow Christ’s commandment of loving one another just as Christ loved us. We encourage a sense of belonging within the congregation and newcomers. We welcome everyone who comes to Renewal SGV to become part of the family of God.

• We are loving and accepting of all who enter our campus, including children, youth, adults, seniors from different cultures, who may speak other languages and/or have special needs.
• We create opportunities for people to build friendships and trust, to engage our people in deeper discussions on faith and life. We do this through luncheons, fellowship, life groups, events, etc.
• We invite people through web, social media and personal invitations to engage in activities to promote inclusiveness.

Renewal SGV thrives with a heart of service fueled by the love of Christ. It fosters a community that builds up and trains its members to serve with their skills, gifts, and passions. We are providing opportunities to serve our church and our community in ways that help our members engage with one another and grow in their faith walk with God.

We are creating programs and that disciple each generation and train them up to be leaders and active members both now and in the future. This encourages creating new ministries that serve our changing environment and congregational needs. Our boards are multigenerational and has a high participation that encourages diversity and creativity in leading our congregation. There are many opportunities for our members to serve and minister during our Sunday programs including Sunday School, Life Groups, Worship, Audio/Visual, and Hospitality. Weekly serving ministries include Children, Youth, Young Adults, Families, and Seniors life groups, and community events, such as Summer Fest, VBS, Mexico and other opportunities.

While serving is an integral part of the church, we care more about our congregation’s spiritual life and provide ways for them to be invested in and find rest in Christ. We emphasize that service is a means to draw nearer to Christ by relying on His strength, grace and love.

Renewal SGV is commanded to make disciples of all nations. It is our responsibility to reach within our responsibility to reach within our congregation, extended our grasp beyond our church and spread God’s glory to all.

Our current outreach activities like Mexico Missions, Art Fusion, Women’s Tea, Friday Nite Lights, Basketball, Door of Hope, Boxes of Love, and Operation Christmas Child allow the congregation an opportunity to fulfill God’s mission to reach out to new people and share God’s love and grace. We intentionally engage to share the gospel and build friendships.

We empower our congregation to actively participate in conversations with others, unchurched, unreached, and unbelievers in our local community.

We participate in Missions by supporting our missionaries at home and abroad. This is done through prayer, monetary and physical support. We remain open to other mission opportunities as well.
