+ What should I expect when I arrive?

We know, church in a movie theatre is a little different, but we promise, once you walk in, it feels just like home! When you first arrive, you will be greeted by friendly, hosting team. They'll welcome you in and guide you to our main theare 16, or to the Renewal Kids theatre 13, to drop off your little world-changer.

It is a big step to come to a new church, and we want you to feel welcome and appreciated. We encourage you to talk to our volunteers, ask questions, and feel right at home! If you would like someone to reach out to you in advance, make sure to click on the "Plan Your Visit" button anywhere on this page! Plus, you will get a copy of our list of 79 Must Try Boston Restaurants!

+ How long is a Renewal Church service?

Our services are only about 60 minutes. We begin with the Renewal Worship Team leading us in a few uplifting songs. Lyrics will be projected on screens so you can follow along. After this time of worship music, one of our pastors will share a Gospel-centered, hope-filled message!

+ What should I wear?

You are welcome to wear whatever clothing you are comfortable in. You do not need to dress up, although you are more than welcome to if you would like. Most people dress in casual attire.

+ Do I need to bring anything?

Just bring yourself! YOU ARE ENOUGH.

+ What about my kids?

At Renewal Kids, our mission is to develop leaders who are passionately in love with Jesus. Each week, future world-changers grow more in love with God and his house through worship, interactive lessons, and of course, fun!

During both our 9:30 and 11:00 services, your little ones will experience a fun environment designed to teach through song, story time, and crafts. More time is devoted to lesson time and worship to help prepare your young ones as they grow and develop.

Or if you prefer them to worship with the whole family, during the 11:00 service we have a fun packet filled with activities to keep them engaged and excited about coming to church!

It’s not babysitting, it's leadership development.
