RENEWED Ministries Update – 2 January 2026
NEWS, PRAYER AND SUPPORT UPDATE!
This is the RENEWED Ministries update for January 2, 2026, as provided by Reverend Courtney Richards.
Dear friends and prayer partners.
New Year’s greetings and God’s richest and choicest blessings for you and your loved ones in 2026 and beyond. May this year be filled with the glory of God and His unmistakable grace and favour in your life, doing great and mighty things in you and through you.
2026 marks 30 years of RENEWED Ministries, in which God has used us around the world to do missions and ministry beyond what we could have ever thought or imagined at the outset. Praise His Holy name. Within the next few weeks, our Board will interview two young leaders who’ve been serving alongside me for several years now as part of the process of selecting the next leaders of RENEWED Ministries, International. They are Pastor Juma Peter Maritim from Kenya and Pastor Alex Altidor from St. Vincent and the Grenadines in the Caribbean. It is hoped that they will become the joint leaders of RENEWED Ministries, International, upon my retirement from the full-time leadership of RM on September 1, 2027. In the meantime, I’ve been working with them to prepare them for leading the ministry.
*We need your fervent and focused prayers to hear from God to guide our Board in the selection process and to raise up a new generation, a David generation I call it, of Spirit-empowered leaders to lead the ministry to higher levels of transformation and impact in making and multiplying disciples, The Jesus Way, for the Kingdom and glory of God*
Thank you very much for your partnership with us in RENEWED Ministries as we seek to fulfil God’s mission and vision of discipleship and leadership training to expand His Kingdom and glorify His name.
Coram Deo.
Courtney
