Caswell Fall Retreat
October 18-20

This Fall Retreat weekend is designed to create an environment where students can get away from life for a weekend and focus on God and their relationship with Him, each other, and a broken world. On this weekend, the BeDoTell team of the NC Baptist Assembly and speaker Andy Blanks will encourage and motivate our student generation with the theme of "Together."

Note:  Full payments are not due at deadline—only deposits.  Sign-up so we can get registered!! :)

MISSION

Here at Refuge we are all too aware of the fact that there are so many people today that do not have a dynamic relationship with God.  Through searching the Scriptures, we have found our mission from Scripture to be that of discipleship, namely the command to make disciples of Jesus as we are going.  Our heart at Refuge is to lead students to impact the world through a relationship with God that begins with true salvation.

VISION

To accomplish this mission, we have thought through ministry at four levels—and do ministry practically through these four levels:
1.  Relational Discipleship
2.  Bold Evangelism
3.  Universal Outreach
4.  Intrinsic Teamwork

CORE VALUES

We seek to embody these several values in everything we do.

We LEARN God's Word
We LOVE people and each other
We SHARE our faith
We WORK together
We SPEAK openly
We WORSHIP Jesus
We LEAD boldly
We BUILD relationship
We PRAY for souls

REFUGE
Refuge is our large group meeting time for the student ministry, grades 6-12.  During our time we play a game or two to break down walls, we engage in worship, engage in teaching from God's Word, and make prayer a priority—specifically, praying for salvation of lost people and discipleship of fellow believers.  Join us us this Wednesday, and we will worship God together!
