WEDNESDAY NIGHTS
At the Aurora Campus, we gather our middle and high school students together during the school year on Wednesday evenings from 6:30-8:15pm. There is no pre-registration required. Students are assigned to a consistent community group their first night where they will be with the same small group of kids organized by age & gender, and the same leaders each week. Friends and new students are always welcome. Most weeks consist of time to simply hang out, teaching and worship, community group discussions, games and snacks.
SUNDAY MORNINGS
Every second Sunday of the month, Middle School Students in grades 6-8 are invited to REMIX during the 9:10am service. Remix is designed to be a developmentally appropriate weekend experience just for middle school students. Similar to what happens in the auditorium, we gather for worship and bible teaching, but we throw in a lot more donuts and games than they do in the auditorium! No need to register.
SILVER BIRCH RANCH (SBR) SUMMER CAMP
Every summer, middle and high school students head to Silver Birch Ranch in Wisconsin. This is a fun and important week that can accomplish a tremendous amount of spiritual and relational growth in the lives of students who participate.
2025 Dates
High School: June 16 - June 21
Middle School: June 27 - July 2
Registration is open through May 7, 2025, or until camp sells out.
STAY CONNECTED
To stay up to date on all things that are currently taking place in Student Ministry, including resources and content that we will make available to parents and students, make sure you sign up for the following things:
Refuge Cell Phone Policy
In an effort to help students engage most fully with God, Scripture and the peers and leaders in the room with them, we have put the following guidelines in place for our Refuge environment.
📱Cell phones should be put away during the following times: worship, teaching and small group discussions.
📱We will discourage the use of digital Bibles and note taking. Students should bring a hard copy NIV Bible and paper for notetaking. We are happy to help students buy their own hard copy Bible if necessary and we certainly have Bibles available to use at Refuge.
📱Cell phones can be used during the hang out time. However, we encourage students to value communication and engagement with the leaders and other students present over their cell phone use.
