Welcome to Refuge Youth Ministries – a ministry to young people in grades 6 through 12. Life is full of highs and lows. We need friends to celebrate the highs with and friends to walk with us through the lows. We try to be those kind of friends. We aren’t perfect. We often mess up. But we have a safe place to come – a refuge. And we know the ultimate Refuge – God.
OUR VISION
....Fully devoted followers of Jesus Christ.
OUR MISSION
....Build relationships and environments to inspire young people to pursue intimacy with God, community with believers, and influence with others.
OUR VALUES
1. Loving Relationships - God made us for relationships – with Him and with others. Healthy relationships happen when love is more than just words. Love does.
2. Transformative Growth - God made us to grow. Healthy growth is not head knowledge but transforming knowledge that changes us into the likeness of Jesus Christ.
3. Passionate Service - God made us for service. Healthy service is service from the heart. We will serve God and others with enthusiasm and gratitude.
4. Inclusive Community - God made us for community. Healthy community is welcoming and accepting of all, offering grace just as we have received grace from God.
5. Compassionate Action - God made us for action. Healthy action listens to the needs and desires of others and acts accordingly to alleviate suffering. God calls us to be agents of change and advocates for justice.
