Forming a deeper connection with those around us can strengthen our faith as we walk together as disciples of Christ. Sometimes churches can feel “family-centric,” which can make it difficult for singles and married couples without kids to find that connection with others. The Urban Refuge saw a need within this unique group and formed UR Threads, which is designed to give young adults a place to grow and connect together.
Through social events, service projects, spiritual discussions and worship, the group strives to live out Urban Refuge’s vision of doing justice, loving mercy and walking humbly with God. It serves as an environment where its members can form deeper friendships and ultimately strengthen each other in Christ. The events and gatherings are purposefully designed to be a casual and inviting atmosphere where both regular attenders and people new to the church will feel at home.
