Tuesday Bible Study

We Lift up Jesus "...If I be lifted up...I'll draw all people unto me."

City of Refuge United Church of Christ is a ministry of restoration. We are intentionally radically inclusive, welcoming all persons regardless of race, color, ancestry, age, gender, affectional orientation, and those who are specially abled. We celebrate the Creator's diversity! We Worship Christ!

Bishop Yvette Flunder, Founder and Senior Pastor, leads our worship services, which we describe as 'Bapta-Metho-costal'. We worship with prayer, preaching and song from the Baptist, Methodist and Pentacostal traditions. This combination produces an uplifting experience with every service. If you are in need of the love of Christ, our services will fill you with that love and nourish your soul.

We are looking forward to welcoming you to our community of faith!

Pastor Ann: In The House Thursdays!

Pastor Ann has regular hours at the church on Thursdays. There is a sign up sheet for counseling appointments with her through the month of October. You may schedule and appointment with her either in person or by phone/email.

Tuesday Night Bible Study

Bible Study Book of Job Completed

Praise the Lord! We have completed our study in the Book of Job.

We are in the planning stages for our next study and will resume

the First Tuesday in April, the 1st, at our regularly scheduled time

at 8:00PM. Have a blessed Resurrection Celebration and we will

see you in two weeks, Tuesday, April 1, 2008, at 8:00PM.

Blessings
