Legacy
accelerate the vision
To God be the Glory for all the miracles we have seen in 2022!
The word God gave me for this year has been “Health.” Our goal wasn’t to focus on building a big church, but to focus on building a healthy church. God has honored this initiative, and I can boldly say that we are healthier than we’ve ever been as a church body.
This year alone, we’ve seen more lives changed, more disciples made, and more money given towards missions and outreach than ever before in the history of Radiant!
Just a few highlights from this year:
- 800+ completed the first year of Foundations
- 347 baptisms
- $139,422 raised for Refugees in Ukraine
- $106,978 Raised for Hurricane Ian Relief
- 2,036 Decisions for Christ
- Over $1,000,000 given to missions this year.
None of this could happen without God’s grace and your radical generosity. We celebrate the past year of health, and we look forward to what God is going to do in 2023.
Our annual legacy offering will take place on December 11th, 2022. This special offering helps accelerate the vision of what God wants to do through Radiant Church. We have millions of dollars of vision for reaching people in the Tampa Bay area, and we need your involvement.
Here is what we ask:
- Pray for what God would have you give.
- Explore the opportunities that God has given us.
- Give on December 11th or before year end.
Thank you for being a vital part to what God is doing through His church!
The Best is Yet to Come,
Pastor Aaron and Katie Burke
