Care Ministries
Care ministries consist of volunteers from Renew who desire to help people with a variety of needs. These teams will be available to seniors, widows, those with chronic health issues, or people who lack family or funding resources to assist. Most recipients of Care Team help are part of the Renew Bible Church family. Care teams are currently not a funded or budgeted ministry. All that is required is for team members who have a heart for others!
