A Message from the Team


Hello Friends,
We pray you and your family are well in the midst of COVID-19. We trust God is in control and at work. The change in plans may have caught us off guard, but God was not surprised and has a purpose for it all. This virus has changed our lives, but not our God! 

Back on March 5th, before any of this started here in Iowa, our team had a meeting. During that time, we talked, laughed and prayed. We also made a decision. Each year we seek God's plan for the event. We ask Him to be in every detail - the speaker, the theme, the music, the volunteers, all of it. Each year He's been faithful, we expected the same this year. We believe, we received just that even though it looks much different than the past 8 years. 

With that, we're letting you know there will not be a ReNEWed Life Women’s Event this year. This was not an easy decision, but a process of prayer and discernment. We spent time individually and as a team seeking direction and we believe He has once again been faithful to answer.

We are thankful for the opportunity to serve in this capacity and grateful for the support and prayers of the churches. We appreciate the leadership and assistance Pastor Tim and the elders have provided year after year.  Like we said before, none of this would have happened without all those who have volunteered to help, those who shared their story and ALL who attended, so thanks to each of you as well.

The seeds that were planted will continue to grow and come to fruition as time goes by. Though the event comes to an end, the work of the ministry will continue. God started the work and He will be faithful to complete it.

We write these words with hearts of full of praise and countless wonderful memories! At our first meeting in March of 2012, we had no idea what the future held and today the same is true, but our faith has grown and we trust God more now than we did then.

We pray you can say the same. May you continue to renew your mind with His Word and seek to grow in your faith. Thank you for joining us in this journey! It's been a blessing to connect with you! If you have a favorite memory or important lesson from ReNEWed Life we invite you to share in the comments and will praise God together again!

In Christ’s love,
The ReNEWed Life Team
Kim, Teresa, Kathy & Jill
