Making A Difference

Across the great state of South Carolina for the past 3 days it has gone from the beautiful state we know, to something out of a movie. A land that is ravished with water, floods, homes being swept downstream, lives lost, and families losing everything. They call it the 1000 years flood, I don't think any of us ever thought we would see this in 1000 years! But it's in these times that we, as followers of Jesus and lovers of people are called to be RESPONSIVE!

So... here's the plan for Radiate for the next few days.

1. We will pray!
We realize that it's great to be responsive, but impossible to change lives without prayer! Pray for families, pray for communities, pray for our state, and pray for the First Responders that are and will be risking their lives in order to save the lives of others!

2. We will be responsive!
Radiate Church (1955 Legrand Road Columbia) will begin taking donations of the following:
- Non-Perishable foods (canned goods, rice, noodles, etc.)
- New Bottled Water
- Finances (no this is not a money grab. This is a chance to give to a church that will make sure the resources will be used to purchase whatever the community needs. You can give at www.radiatechurch.net)
To drop things off:
Since we do not know our full work schedule yet due to weather conditions you can drop things off at the front door, and we will get them. We are planning regular work hours beginning Wednesday, but with the road conditions consistently changing we feel this is the best way to just be consistent. When there are time changes for sure on this we will let you know ASAP!

3. We will continue moving forward!
If the Church (big "C") is supposed to be a beacon of light and a representation of it's community, then we can rest assured of this: If the Church stops moving forward so will the community! If the Church stops helping others, so will the community! We will be EXCITED to have church on Sunday! We will continue to prepare for our Revive Conference, we will continue preparing for Cover Columbia at the end of October, and we will continue to promote 1 - JESUS, 2 - RADIATE!
