Refuge.Church is a small group of misfits who eat together, share stories, laugh, dream, pray, and gather in the name of Jesus. We gather on Saturday nights at 5:30pm both online and onsite.
The focus of the church should be Jesus. Not a charismatic leader, not a building, not programming. JESUS!!! Being a new church (est. 2016) we are seeking to build the culture that Jesus established and desires still today for this modern generation.
The first thing people knew about Christians is that all walks of life gathered together and devoted themselves to the apostles teachings, to fellowship, to the breaking of bread and to prayer. Our weekly worship gatherings are on Saturday nights. These gatherings are a time of singing, teaching, eating, prayer and conversation.
