About Us

Renew started in 2021 when a group of 30 college ministers from the Acts2 Network moved from California to New York with the vision of planting an Acts 2 community for college students in NYC. 

​

We want college students everywhere to experience what we experienced in college. Many of us weren't Christians growing up but became convinced Christianity is true in college. Others grew up religious, but didn't find God or the Bible relevant until we were college students. But all of us encountered God personally and were transformed as we experienced life as He intended - closely connected to him and to others.

Being in college - that season of life when you're figuring out who you are and what you're doing with your life - was a key part of our spiritual journey. And we hope it will be for yours, too!
