Women’s Retreat
Save the date for the second annual Refuge Church Women's Retreat!
Join the women of Refuge Jan 31-Feb 1 for a 2-day retreat. We will explore how God is our refuge throughout seasons of life, worship together, and spend time in fellowship. Come as you are - anxious, in need of rest, lonely, restless, or wherever you are - and take refuge in God our fortress.
The retreat will take place Friday evening through Saturday evening, with the option to stay overnight (space limited) or commute. We will meet at Linda Gould's home in Rio Pinar. Register below!
Vision Banquet
Our Vision
To see our community find refuge in Jesus and be a refuge for others
"Every word of God proves true; He is a shield to those who take refuge in Him." – Proverbs 30:5
2025 promises to be an exciting year for Refuge. We believe God is working in ways to build the church as a refuge for the Conway Gardens area and our city for years to come.
This banquet serves to share with the congregation the ways that God is calling us to walk in faithfulness as a church family for the upcoming year. From community groups to discipleship to finances—if you call Refuge your church home, please plan to be at our Vision Banquet!
Childcare and a separate meal will be provided for those 10 and under.
NOTE: Please register you and your family by Friday, January 31st at Noon so we have an accurate headcount for catering purposes.
Baptism
Baptism is a powerful declaration of the work Jesus has done for our salvation. It symbolizes how He went under the waters of judgment for our sin and emerged victorious through His resurrection, conquering sin, Satan, death, and hell.
Join us for baptisms following our service on February 2nd.
