Community

How To Connect

At Refuge we are all about community. Being involved in community is critical to being in church rather than simply attending church. In addition to our Sunday worship gatherings, below are some ways to get involved with community at Refuge.

Gospel Communities.

Gospel Communities provide a way not only to connect with others in the church, but a way to experience life together in a gospel-centered, authentic, and missional way. Our gospel communities take place in the homes of members of Refuge Church and provide a much more informal atmosphere to get to know others in the community. Each gospel community has a leader committed to sharing his or her life with his or her group by providing wisdom and encouragement. To join a Gospel Community, or find out more info, check out the Gospel Community Leaders page.

Kids Refuge.

We welcome you and your child to this vital ministry of our church. Your child is precious to you, so we join with you in one of your most important responsibilities: the nurturing of your child’s development. Children’s Catechism (PDF Download)

Elevate.

Our mission is to provide a fun and safe place to equip elementary students and their families to learn about Jesus and see how he truly is the hero of every story.

Student Communities.

A place for 6th through 12th graders to be heard, be known and be loved.

Serve St. Charles.

We are a community of people that claim that we don’t have it all together but are on mission to make a difference in the future of St. Charles. The mission of Serve St. Charles is to empower people by loving and serving through faith, hope and love.
