24 Hour Worship Marathon at the Refuge

24 Hour Worship Marathon at the RefugeAbout one week ago, we hosted our first 24 hour praise and worship marathon at the Refuge. We had about sixty on-fire youth passionately worshipping God the whole time. It ran continuously for 24 hours from Friday until Saturday night. It was amazing to see the hunger, fire, and passion the youth displayed the whole time. The atmosphere for worship and soaking in God’s presence was just wonderful.

Sheena who attended announced that her friend Khael was healed at the event, “He testified how his sore throat was instantly healed when he joined the 24 hour non-stop worship.”

Another attendee told me she clearly heard answers from God about things she had been praying for months about. She also told me she enjoyed God’s presence so much that it was hard for her to leave.

This event was such a wonderful success. We can’t wait to have the next one.

The Future Refuge Youth Center

For years, we have had a vision to start a youth evangelism center. In our vision, this center will gather youth from the city where we can preach salvation to hundreds and eventually thousands of youth.

While we have waited for this dream to be fulfilled, we have been helping and serving other local ministries helping others accomplish their dreams. During this waiting period, we have been looking for the place and time to implement this vision. We believe we have finally found it.

A two story commercial space just opened up in a highly visible prime location on MacArthur Highway inside the same building as Edge radio. It was formerly occupied by a church that defaulted and left all of its equipment including the sound system, air conditioning, chairs, and even the drum set. We spoke to the owner and he is willing to rent us the space for a fair price and will also let us use all of the left behind equipment without any additional cost.

After consulting with our board of directors, we have decided to go forward with our dream. We really feel in our spirit now is the time for this new vision to spring forth.

We are planning to start renting the new space in July. We are in immediate need of an additional $1,000 within two weeks to move in, and we will need additional monthly support to make this happen. Please pray for us and please help us financially to achieve this dream.
