The word “refuge” means “a shelter providing protection from danger” and accurately reflects the spiritual goals for our midweek student gathering. The world is full of chaos and confusion so Refuge is a safe place to be encouraged through friendship, God’s Word, worship, and prayer. A free dinner is served and students arrive early for games and to hang out. God has consistently used this sacred time together to connect students to the group. Although Refuge consists mostly of middle school and high school grades, many parents, college students, and younger siblings also regularly attend.
