The Country Chapel and Refuge is the result of
a vision from our Lord Jesus Christ using Isaiah 54:2.

Isaiah 54:2 “Enlarge the place of your tent, And let them stretch out the curtains
of your dwellings; Do not spare; Lengthen your cords, And strengthen your stakes.”

The Country Chapel and Refuge is a chapel and retreat for all Christians, including all weary Christians.  (There are no requirements to come to the Chapel.)  This would be a time of renewal, reconciliation, restoration, and refreshing under the direction and instruction of the Holy Spirit.
