Giving that makes a difference.
At Refuge, we believe the heart of the Church is people. Everything we do is rooted in sharing the hope of Jesus, caring for those around us, and reaching people with the life-changing love of God.
Heart for the People is our year-end giving campaign focused on the people we have the opportunity to serve, both in our community and beyond. This November and December, we're inviting our church family to give toward three key areas that help us meet needs, share the Gospel, and make a lasting impact in the lives of others.
