Following Jesus for a Lifetime

We seek to create a community of students who follow Jesus, are grounded in His Word, and are committed to each other, their church, and making disciples.

  • What does this look like?
    • We teach them what the Bible says, how to study it, and apply it for themselves.
    • We prepare them for life in the church after graduating from high school.
    • We connect in small groups to deepen their relationships.
    • We host camps and retreats to deepen those relationships further.
    • We connect them with ministries within the church to serve and utilize their God-given gifts, furthering the church's mission.
    • We foster cross-generational relationships within the church, extending beyond parents and youth leaders.
    • We train them to share their faith and create a welcoming community at the Refuge on Wednesday nights.

  • Who is it for?
    • The Refuge is for students in the 7th-12th grades

  • When is it?
    • We meet on Wednesdays from 7:00-8:45 pm in the Multi-Purpose Room

  • If you have more questions, contact Pastor Chris at chrisq@harvestcc.org

Upcoming Events for the Refuge

High School Winter Retreat '26

February 20-22, 2026
Camp Tapawingo in Falls City, OR

This year's theme is “Your Will Be Done,” where our students will learn what it means to submit to God’s will for their lives rather than their own. We will play fun games, eat delicious food, play in the gym, laugh together, and enjoy a great weekend learning more about Jesus, worshiping Him, and how to follow Him. The deadline to register and guarantee a fitting t-shirt is January 29. The cost is $130, but financial help is available if needed.
