Matt Renaud – Donoho Prairie Christian Church

Matt has seemingly boundless energy. When he gets excited about sharing the word of God, it’s impossible not to be excited too. Sometimes he talks so fast it’s hard to keep up, but the passion he has for the Lord comes through loud and clear. He and his family have been such a blessing to our little country church, Donoho Prairie Christian Church in Texico, IL. Matt preaches uncompromising biblical truth that may step on some toes sometimes, but he always ends with the hope we have through Jesus Christ. He stays insanely busy at all times, serving as the Regional Superintendent of Schools for several surrounding counties, one of the co-founders/owners at the popular ice cream shop Yellin Helen’s in Dix, IL, and another business on the side that he manages, all while preaching every Sunday and being there for his church family wherever needed. I don’t know how he does it all, but I do know he needs all the prayers, support, and appreciation we can give him. At Donoho Prairie, we know how incredibly blessed we are to have Matt, his wife Joy, and the rest of their family with us, and I hope that he can be recognized and appreciated outside our community as well. Matt is so joyful to greet everyone personally and is so encouraging and upbeat. He is always excited to share the good news of Jesus and God’s abundant love for us. Matt is more than spiritually involved, he is always willing to jump in and help solve anyone’s problems. He and his wife do a lot for the church and community, including premarital counseling and performing my wedding. And supportive in our ministry for moms through MomCo International. I love my pastor because he studies and preaches the Word faithfully. He’s consistent in what he teaches. I’m encouraged by his prayers that show his love and devotion to God. I know he looks to God to make sure he’s working for God’s vision for our church and in life (and not his own vision). My pastor is the real deal who doesn’t act spiritually superior or condescending. He devotes his sermons to God. He invites the Holy Spirit into his sermons and preaches in a way that makes us really think about what Jesus wants in our lives. I cannot take notes quick enough in his sermons. My pastor doesn’t just preach discipleship, he seeks to make disciples of others. He’s truly passionate about seeing those without Christ become followers of the Savior. my pastor truly has a heart filled with Christ’s love. Not only does Matt Renaud go above and beyond as a preacher but he also is the Regional Superintendent at district 13 ROE, doing his very best to keep our schools away from the crazy ways of this new age and protecting the innocence of childhood. Oh and he’s also my dad and I admire him so

Haven’t Seen It Yet

Lyrics

Have you been praying
And you still have no answers
Have you been pouring out your heart for so many years

Have you been hoping
That things would have changed by now
Have you cried all the faith you have through so many tears

Don’t forget the things that He has done before
And remember He can do it all once more

It’s like the brightest sunrise
Waiting on the other side
Of the darkest night
Don’t ever lose hope, hold on and believe
Maybe you just haven’t seen it
Just haven’t seen it yet
You’re closer than you think you are
Only moments from the break of dawn
All His promises are just up ahead
Maybe you just haven’t seen it
Just haven’t seen it yet

He had the solution
Before you had the problem
He sees the best in you when you feel at your worst
So in the questioning don’t ever doubt His love for you
‘Cause it’s only in His love that you’ll find a breakthrough

He is moving with a love so deep
Hallelujah for the victory
Good things are coming even when we can’t see
We can’t see it yet, but we believe that
