Refuge Builders

Serving Churches & Families Across the Nation

The heart of Refuge Builders is to serve our brothers and sisters in Christ by helping restore and strengthen both their churches and their homes. In a hurting economy—where families are struggling just to keep up with rising costs—we believe now more than ever we are called to “bear one another’s burdens, and so fulfill the law of Christ” (Galatians 6:2).

Our ministry offers free labor to churches and congregation members who simply cannot afford repairs, asking only that materials be supplied. We come with willing hands, grateful hearts, and the conviction that “whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers and sisters of mine, you did for Me” (Matthew 25:40).

A Call to Practical Love

We know how challenging it has become for pastors, churches, and families to maintain essential repairs when every dollar feels stretched thin. Buildings continue to age, roofs leak, and families need safe homes. Our mission is to meet those practical needs while living out the words of 1 John 3:18: “Let us not love with words or speech but with actions and in truth.”

Philippians 2:3-4

Do nothing out of selfish ambition or vain conceit. Rather, in humility value others above yourselves, not looking to your own interests but each of you to the interests of the others.
