What's New in REFUGE


This Sunday we will begin a new teaching series in REFUGE. We will begin studying the same passages that will be used for the Sunday morning sermons in the main worship service. This is not a substitute for our corporate worship service but a supplemental message designed especially for middle school students.

Why are we doing this?

This fall we will be making significant changes to our ministry on Sunday mornings in order to help our students get connected to the rest of the church and participate in the corporate worship service. Launching this teaching series is a step toward that transition. If you have further questions, please contact me.

Happy Resurrection Day!

I hope that you are like me and looking forward to celebrating Jesus' death and resurrection this weekend. This is the best holiday ever! As a church we will commemorate Jesus' death in our Good Friday service this Friday (duh!) at 7 p.m. and celebrate his resurrection on Sunday.

Just a reminder that there is no REFUGE this weekend. We will have two services on Easter morning--9:15 and 11:15. Each service will feature drama, songs by our choir, singing together and the preaching of the Word.

Next Sunday we will continue with our teaching from the book of Proverbs. Starting in May, we will focus on the same passages of Scripture taught in the main worship service as a way to help our students prepare for our transition in the Fall.
