Today, World Renew’s ministry in the United States focuses on engaging Christians, churches, businesses, and schools in learning about and responding to disaster, hunger, poverty and injustice. This ministry takes many forms:
Disaster Response
When disasters strike, World Renew responds through its Disaster Response Services. Volunteers (a.k.a. “the Greenshirts”) give their time and talents to help clear debris, assess unmet needs, make repairs, and completely rebuild homes after disasters strike. Volunteer opportunities are available for individuals, couples, and groups.
Community Development
World Renew’s community development ministry in the United States is carried out by our Church and Community Engagement Team (CaCE). CaCE partners with churches and ministries across the US to demonstrate God’s love in their own communities. This includes inspiring, equipping, and encouraging deacons, churches, and their partners to join in God’s transforming work.
Involvement
World Renew provides a variety of ways for Americans to learn about and get involved in its ministry. This includes volunteer opportunities, advocacy, fundraising suggestions and more. In particular, our Climate Witness Project represents a vast network of churches, businesses, and individuals committed to stewarding our resources well, learning how we have done damage to our climate, and taking action both in our personal lives and through civic action.
