​Senior Pastor 
David Rennick


Rev. David Rennick began his appointment to NSUMC in July 2018. An Arizona native, David grew up a life-long United Methodist in Mesa. After earning his Master of Divinity and Master of Arts in Christian Formation and Discipleship from Wesley Theological Seminary in Washington, DC he returned in 1997 to begin serving congregations in the Desert Southwest Conference. Prior to coming to NSUMC, David served as Sr. Pastor of his home church, First UMC of Mesa.
 
David is married to Rebecca, who works for the State of Arizona Attorney General’s Office. Together, they have a daughter, Alexandria, who can be seen raiding the cookie plate during fellowship time on Sunday mornings. David has two adult sons, Phillip and Dustin who he adopted as a single parent. Both live in Arizona.
 
David’s passion for all people brings an understanding that we all have a voice and a place in the community. We all are a part of the body of Christ and cannot exist without the other.
 
Most Sundays, the words of the closing blessing call us to “Make Monday like Sunday.” Being a follower of Jesus is daily and we strive to live up to this way of our faith.
