The Pastor and Elders
The elder/pastor community at Refuge is designed to model community in the ordinary and everyday. Our elders gather to prepare sermons, pray for our congregation, and care for the needs of Refuge, specifically in pastoral counseling and church leadership. Click on any elder below to email them.
