As we have fun hanging out with each other we’ll talk about how, though the world tries to convince us of something different, God desires to be our “Refuge.” As we deal with life’s questions that can come at us, he wants us to know we can find comfort in his truth and learn to share it with love and compassion so he can become a “Refuge” not only for us but for others around us as well.

This event is open to all active members of the Midwest teen ministries (grades 9-12). Contact your teen leaders if you need further clarification.
