REFUGE CHURCH
----------------

REFUGE Church has been blessed with a rich legacy of loving, serving, and ministering to our community for many years. It is our great joy to see our campus filled consistently throughout the week as we pour into the lives of individuals and families across Pender County. Our heart’s desire is to prepare the way of the Lord by creating a place where people can encounter the presence of God, grow in faith, and experience authentic Christian fellowship.
 

While REFUGE Christian Academy plays a vital role in the ministry of REFUGE Church, it is only one part of the incredible growth God has brought to our church family. Our children’s ministries and youth ministries are thriving and passionately pursuing the Lord, and our Sunday services are quickly approaching full capacity. We long to cultivate an environment where families can worship together, build meaningful relationships, and truly do life together in Christ.
 

We are deeply humbled and honored that God has brought us into a season of overflow. As the ministry continues to expand, so does the need for additional space to serve our growing congregation and community effectively. Through our Arise and Build campaign, we are preparing for the future with faith and expectation, creating room for generations to come to encounter Jesus and participate in the building of God’s Kingdom.

REFUGE CHRISTIAN ACADEMY
----------------

Seven years ago marked the beginning of REFUGE Christian Academy, a vision birthed through the leading of the Holy Spirit to provide a Christ-centered alternative to public education within our rural community. As the only private Christian school in our area, God has blessed this ministry beyond what we could have imagined, allowing us to grow from just seventeen students to nearly one hundred fifty over the past six years.
 

At REFUGE Christian Academy, our mission is to place God at the center of everything we do, including every aspect of education and academic development. We are committed to nurturing each student individually, recognizing that every child learns uniquely and thrives at their own pace. Through intentional, faith-based instruction and genuine care for every student, we strive to cultivate both academic excellence and spiritual growth.
 

Because of the tremendous support from families and the continued blessings of God upon this ministry, REFUGE Christian Academy has now reached full capacity and is in need of a larger space. Expanding our facilities will allow us to continue reaching the hearts of children with the love and truth of Christ while equipping future generations to walk boldly in their God-given purpose and help advance His Kingdom for years to come.
