Weekly Faith Habits

Inviting you to be renewed in faith through intentional faith habits!

Create in me a clean heart oh God, and renew the spirit within me! Psalm 51

RENEW 52 is Immanuel’s theme for ministry for this next year beginning with our Welcome Weekend Worship on Sunday, September 13. Renew 52 is an invitation for each of us to intentionally take time each week to renew our relationship with God and with God’s people. Every relationship requires effort and action to keep it healthy and strong, to keep it continually renewed. Our relationship with God, and the love, hope, guidance, and inspiration we find in our faith, is the foundation upon which we build our lives and other relationships. Our relationships with God’s people, particularly our family and friends, are the most immediate places in which we share and experience God’s love and blessing.

RENEW 52 is Immanuel’s invitation for you to intentionally take time to renew your relationships with God and God’s people weekly for the next 52 weeks. We are using the Faith5* faith practices (SHARE, READ, TALK, PRAY, BLESS) to guide the renewing or your relationships with God and God’s people.

Each week we will invite people to engage in one of the Faith5, (SHARE, READ, TALK, PRAY, BLESS) with family, friends, or individually. The FAITH5 practices have the power to enrich communication, deepen understanding, and promote mental, and spiritual health.

The FAITH5 are:

1: SHARE your highs and lows

2: READ the bible to connect God’s story with your story

3: TALK about how God's story inspires and instructs your daily life/faith

4: PRAY for renewal, give God thanks, and pray for the needs of all God’s people.

5: BLESS one another in acts of kindness and service.
