Hey Radiant,
Some good things upcoming!
1) I’m pretty excited about the Inner Healing Prayer workshop this Saturday. Last chance to sign up — please let us know by noon Friday so we can plan accordingly. This is good opportunity for anyone who wants to grow in their experience of hearing God and growing as a disciple of Jesus. More information below.
2) This Sunday — we’ll have Pastor Dani Kilgore from Stockton Covenant joining us as we continue our teaching series: Journey to the Cross. Dani will share from Mark 14:17-22, on the theme, “Hope After Failure.” I am excited to learn from Dani!
3) A Lenten prayer for today by Pete Greig:
Lord, Your love endures forever. Help me not to distance myself today from the brokenness of the world. Break me and pour me out. Your love endures forever. I offer myself once again as a living sacrifice to You, the Lamb who sacrificed Yourself not just for me, but for every single person I will meet today. Your love endures forever. Amen.
See you Sunday at 5PM!

HOME CHURCHES ARE GETTING AFTER IT!
Radiant Home Churches are communities of discipleship in the way of Jesus and are foundational to our life as a church.

Groups has just recently started, so it’s an optimal time to jump in. NEW CHILDREN’S CHURCH RHYTHM
4th and 5th grade will have children’s church every Sunday starting this Sunday. We are always looking for volunteers and teachers.
INNER HEALING PRAYER WORKSHOP — SATURDAY, 2/24
Jesus is with us always bringing us into healing and freedom. Inner Healing prayer is a means for inviting Jesus into the pain, trauma, and anxiety that we carry. On Saturday, February 24th from 9-4pm we will host a prayer ministry training workshop for those interested in learning how to invite the healing presence of Jesus into their own lives and the lives of others. We will have a guest facilitator, Laura Thiel. Laura has led prayer workshops across the world as a staff member with Intervarsity Christian Fellowship. Mark your calendar — this will be a transformational time. Suggested donation is $15 (we’ll include lunch). You can sign up here.
NEWCOMER’S PIZZA
If you are new or new-ish to Radiant, Jill and I would love to have you over to our house for pizza. Newcomer’s pizza will be on March 3rd, following our worship gathering. We’ll share a bit more the vision and mission of Radiant and the Covenant denomination and get a chance to hear from you, answer any questions you might have. Email Zach – zach@radcov.org – to let him know you are coming. Kids welcome!
MEN’S CONFERENCE 4/19-21 at MISSION SPRINGS
Join us for a weekend of impact, challenge, and fun as we spend time in worship, fellowship, and growing in Christ. Our hope is that the men at the conference would feel empowered to rise up and seek out God despite feelings, circumstances, or situations. Register here. Also — the Fowlers have generously opened up their Mission Springs cabin and have room for ten. Let John know if you are interested. 209.345.5854
BAND APP
One way to connect at Radiant is to join our BAND APP group. Think of this as a sort of Radiant message board — our own little social media space. People can extend invites, share about needs and opportunities.
