5 Years of Renew!

The Winter 2026-27 quarter edition marks 5 years for Renew. The team of writers, editors, graphic designer, proofreader, and administrator are dedicated to Renew's mission from its beginning in 2021 to provide adult Sunday school curriculum with an evangelical Anabaptist perspective to equip people to be the body of Christ for his glory. We want to glorify God because of what he has done for us in renewing our lives through the death of Jesus on the cross for our sins and by being victorious over death through Jesus’ resurrection from the dead. We recognize that we need daily renewal in his Word through the Holy Spirit to be the body of Christ for his glory. We praise God for how he has provided for and worked through Renew the past five years and how he will continue to provide for and work in the lives of those who use Renew in the future.

If you're interested in learning more about Renew, email renew@firstmennonite.org, visit renewpublishing.org, or follow Renew on Facebook.

EMM Banquet

November 12 at 6 p.m. | Doubletree Resort by Hilton

December 3 at 11 a.m. | Westview Community Room at Landis Homes

February 17 at 12 p.m. | Sarasota Community Church

You are invited to join us for an EMM vision and fundraising banquet.

“Behold, I have set before you an open door, which no one is able to shut.” — Revelation 3:8 (ESV)

In Revelation 3:8, Jesus speaks to a faithful church with “little power” and points them not to what they lack, but to what He has placed before them: an open door. The door is His to open, the way is His to make, and what He opens, no one can shut.

EMM is committed to faithfully following where God leads as He opens doors for the gospel across neighborhoods, nations, homes and hearts. We have the privilege of seeing faith take root, lives transformed, and the name of Jesus carried into places we could never reach by our own strength.

You are invited to EMM’s annual vision and fundraising banquet to celebrate the doors God is opening around the world, hear stories of His faithfulness, and discover how you can partner with us through prayer, participation, giving, or going.
