REFUGE STUDENT MINISTRY

OUR DESIRE IS TO SEE EVERY STUDENT ENCOUNTER CHRIST

THE 3 R'S OF YOUTH MINISTRY

01

REACH

To reach students with the message of Christ.

03

RELEASE

To release students to make an impact for Christ.

02

RAISE

To raise students in their walk with Christ.

We do this through worship, Bible study and serving our community and beyond. It would be a joy to have you join us! 

Open to students in grades 6th - 12th.

WE HAVE A HEART FOR STUDENTS

They are the church of today and we want to do all we can to help them reach their full potential while developing a Biblical worldview.

The Jonathan Initiative Mentorship Program

We are looking for Christ-like adults with servant hearts to disciple the students in the youth group. In these troubling times it takes all of us working together to see students come to know Christ and spend their lives following Him. 

Please contact Ashley at (843) 662-9451 if the Lord is leading you to serve in this way. Each mentor must go through training and be Ministry Safe trained and background checked to serve.

STUDENT BIBLE STUDIES & OPPORTUNITIES

SUNDAY MORNING STUDY

This curriculum helps students develop a hunger for the Word of God and in doing so develop a hunger for the Lord. They will participate in Scripture memorization and learn doctrine/theology.

YOUTH PRAISE TEAM

Join us as we worship the Lord together! Students will lead worship on Wednesday nights and occasionally on Sunday mornings.

PREVIOUS WEDNESDAY NIGHT STUDY

Join us as we take a deep dive into one of the greatest chapters of the Bible, Romans 8! We'll spend several weeks looking at Paul's words to the church in Rome reminding them and us today of what our salvation truly means.

CURRENT WEDNESDAY NIGHT STUDY

We live in an angry society.  It's easy to cave to our anger and spew it around to others forgetting that we are called to live holy lives for Christ.  Join us for this study as we unpack what the Bible has to say about anger and godly ways to deal with it.
