February 21-23

“Come, see a man…
Can this be the Christ?”

-John 20:21

In the Gospel of John, we find a story of a Samaritan woman who has a life-changing encounter with Jesus. Immediately after, she runs to tell others of what happened, pleading with them to “Come, see a man who told me all that I ever did. Can this be the Christ?”

Intrigued, they follow her to hear Jesus for themselves. Shortly after, they tell the Samaritan woman that “It is no longer because of what you said that we believe, for we have heard for ourselves, and we know that this is indeed the Savior of the world.”

In February, our church family will gather for our 2nd-annual Missions Summit. Amidst the hustle of our daily lives, we offer a simple invitation to come and see Jesus – to see that He is the Savior of the world, to witness the transformation He brings, and to receive His invitation to join in His work.

Weekend Schedule

We have a packed weekend planned for the Missions Summit.

  • Night of Worship
    6:00-7:30 PM in the Sanctuary
    Come join us for a Night of Worship to prepare your hearts to learn about the King of the nations.

    Children’s Programming
    Children are welcome! Redeemer Kids will have missions-focused programs just for them while the adults are worshipping.

  • Day of Prayer
    8:00 AM - 8:00 PM in the Upper Room
    We often forget that prayer is vital for our partners and the work that the Lord is doing. We invite you to take a few minutes (or hours!) to come learn about and pray for our global partners who are ministering around the world.

    Children’s Programming
    These sessions are family friendly and self-paced, with visual displays for each partner and opportunities to write notes of encouragement.

    Breakouts with Partners
    9:00-9:45 AM & 12:15-1:00 PM in Various Locations on Campus
    Join one of our partners for a breakout-style breakfast and/or lunch to hear more stories from them and learn how you can be a part of what the Lord is doing. This is a wonderful way to dig deeper with a partner who peeks your interest and to make a personal connection or discover what deeper partnership looks like. 

    Local & Global Partner Panel
    10:00 AM - 12:00 PM in the Sanctuary
    Join us for an exciting panel discussion and learn more about our local and global partners. We’re also going to hear from deacons and church members who served in numerous ways in 2024.

    Children’s Programming
    Children are welcome, and Redeemer Kids will have missions-focused programs just for them! Register them here.

  • Go & Do Exhibit
    Before and After Worship Services in the Lower Room
    Stop by the Lower Room in between services to meet our partners and learn about ways to be involved this year. 

    Common Meal + Stories from the Nations
    5:30-7:00 PM in the Sanctuary
    Join us for two Redeemer favorites in one evening. We’re going to share a delicious meal with one another as we hear what the Lord is doing in the Middle East, as experienced through the ministry of one of our global partners, Austin.

    Children’s Programming
    Children are welcome, and Redeemer Kids will have missions-focused programs just for them! 2nd-graders and up are welcome to join the adults in the sanctuary, while 1st-graders and below will be downstairs.
