“A man is no fool who gives what he cannot keep to gain what he cannot lose.”
Jim Elliot
1980
Renew Church has its roots in what was once known as Household of Faith, which began as a home church in the early 1980s. From 1980 to 1984, the church gathered in various meeting places, growing as a community committed to faith, worship, and the Word of God.
1982
Jim and Nancy Burbank faithfully pastored from July 1982 through March 2000, laying a strong spiritual foundation and cultivating a close-knit, devoted congregation.
1984
On March 16, 1984, a permanent home was established at 30 Merrimack Road, marking a significant step in the life and stability of the church.
2000
Since 2000, Nick and Sudi Manha have continued that legacy, leading the church with a heart for restoration, discipleship, and community impact. Under their leadership, eventually the church name was changed to Renew Church.
Present
Our mission has been to worship God, teach biblical truth, and make disciples while serving our community with compassion. Today, Renew Church continues to build on that foundation—helping people experience transformation, find purpose, and walk in new life through Jesus Christ.
