The Refuge: Middle

The Refuge Middle is designed specifically for 6th-8th graders to take advantage of their growing curiosity and socialization. We create lots of opportunities for students to build healthy relationships with each other. We also encourage them to ask deeper question about God and what he wants for their lives.


We also have fun and welcoming experiences that will help them feel excited about being a part of the Church!


The Youth Refuge

The Youth Refuge is made up of great teens and adult staff who strive to know Christ and love and lead students to become more like him inside and out,

Our group of 6th through 12th graders share one thing in common: they’re interested in finding God. That’s it. To be a part of the Refuge ministry you don’t have to be a Biblical scholar, a tremendous athlete, or the most popular kid at school. You don’t even need to be a Christian. You just need to be curious about God.

We offer many opportunities for teens to build strong relationships, ask hard questions, examine their beliefs, and make a difference in the world.
