Karen Soole, a trustee and member of the planning team, said: ‘I am grateful for William’s faithful service to ReNew over the last ten years. He has led with clarity, helping establish a positive vision for pioneering, establishing and securing healthy Anglican churches. He has listened and led with gentleness, enabling a structure to be put in place which will serve us well in the future so that ReNew is now more than a conference but a supportive network of local churches with a heart for the evangelisation of England.’
