Announcement – For Information Purposes

Place of Refuge Community Church is no longer operating as a church.

This page has been intentionally left active in recognition of the remarkable ministry and the precious memories of our much-loved late Pastor Kevin Smith, who faithfully served as Pastor from June 2009 until December 2021, and was subsequently promoted to Glory January 16th 2022.

As we approach the fourth anniversary, we remember with deep gratitude Pastor Kevin’s dedication, sacrificial service, and genuine ministerial love for the church and wider community he so faithfully served. His legacy continues to live on in the lives he touched.

Place of Refuge Community Church, and registered charity, formally closed its doors in May 2023.

This page now stands as a place of remembrance and thanksgiving for all that God did through the ministry during those years.

“Well done, good and faithful servant.”
— Matthew 25:21

💙 We will never forget.

(Rom 8:38-39) God bless you all ❤️
