Moving day is Dec 29! On Sunday morning, Dec 29 we will have a shortened service and then move furniture to the new building. Come in your work clothes and help us load the moving trucks!

We will have the KR rooms open for children Kindergarten or younger that morning so that parents can help with the move. Elevate and EGC kids should come ready to help the adults.

Starting on Sunday, Jan 5 Refuge will hold Sunday services at Main Street Church (116 N Main St) at 4PM. While we are meeting at Main Street, we will have KR classes for children in Kindergarten or younger. Elevate and EGC kids will be in service with their parents while we are at Main Street.

The new building is moving along nicely, so keep an eye out for announcements about when we will be able to meet in our very own building!

The holidays will eventually come to an end, and soon it will be time to move! You are invited to join us on Saturday, Dec 28 starting at 9AM to help us box up our decorations in preparation for the big move.

Gather with us on Christmas Eve as we wait in joyful anticipation of the coming of the Lord! All ages will gather in the worship service together.

We need to finish clearing out things we don’t need upstairs before we move buildings. So we will have a dumpster ready to fill on Saturday, Nov 16. Everyone 6th grade and older is invited to help (youth must be accompanied by an adult due to the potential hazards involved with demolition).

We highly suggest bringing gloves and masks with you as there is a lot of dust and allergens upstairs, and lunch will be provided.

This fall's classes are:

• Church History IV: Post Reformation (taught by Joel Waymack) How did the Reformation lead the church to fracture into so many denominations and what do those various denominations believe? How did God use his Spirit to bring about a massive revival in the Great Awakening? How has the church changed and adapted in the United States? During this final class on Church History we'll explore these questions and more as we learn about Church History from 1648 to the present day. You're encouraged to come even if you haven't been to any of the previous classes!

• Jesus and the Powers: The Spirit of Our Politics (taught by Mike Fine) - In an age of political chaos, rising authoritarianism, and divided politics, Christians face difficult questions: What should our posture be toward the state? Should we abstain from the toxicity of politics altogether, or strive for influence within it to advance our own agenda? How can we build for the kingdom while reckoning with the past and present evils of our democratic institutions? This class will explore these questions and more through biblical reflection, current events and historical insight. We'll examine how Jesus' followers have historically navigated empires and how His kingdom should shape our political witness today. Join us as we seek to engage in the political arena faithfully, resisting the temptation to create empires of our own, while remaining true to the Gospel's call to love our neighbors, pursue the common good, and set about the work of building for God's kingdom.

Feeling bored with your Christian walk? Looking for a fuller spiritual experience? Believe it or not, what you need is more of Christ himself. The little book of Colossians is packed full of big truths that the Spirit can use to wake up a dull heart. Listen to Paul as he rehearses the beauty, power, and supremacy of Christ. Let the Spirit call you to a walk worthy of the beautiful Jesus, for whom and by whom all things were made.

Join us on Monday evenings, Aug 19 - Oct 28 (except Labor Day), from 7-8:30PM as we discuss Colossians: At His Feet Studies by Hope Blanton & Christine Gordon. You can order the book on Amazon or we can order it for you.

We would like to invite school aged children in Kindergarten - 5th grade to a BINGO night at Refuge on Oct 25 from 5-7PM. It will be an opportunity for them to socialize and develop relationships outside of their normal classes on Sunday mornings. 

In order for this to be a drop-off event, we will need a number of adults and teens to volunteer to help (~1 adult per 10 children). If you are interested in helping and/or having your child(ren) attend, sign up below. Once we know how many adults can help, we will confirm children in the order in which they have signed up.
