We are a non-denominational, evangelical Christian Church.

God’s not afraid of your questions and neither are we. We’d love to chat over coffee - on us. We don’t have all the answers, but we’d love to help you find answers to your questions or walk alongside you as we discover them together.

Come for a visit. We don’t take attendance or require you to sign in at the door. But it is our hope that you will want to know more about who we are as a church and be a part of what God’s doing at The Refinery. Stop by our Next Steps kiosk in the lobby. We’d love to meet you. 

Our services are come-as-you-are casual. Every week we have live, contemporary, impactful music and a message from a member of our Pastoral Teaching Team. We also take time during every service to share in a time of communion, connect with God through prayer, and worship God through giving.

Not gonna lie; if you’re new to church, it might feel a little awkward at first, but we try hard to make every person who walks through our doors feel comfortable and welcome. Come check us out and be yourself.

Our Welcome Team is ready and waiting in the lobby to greet you, answer your questions, and direct you to where you want to be. Feel free to look around, then make your way to the auditorium through the double doors, and find a seat. There are no assigned or saved seats here; please sit wherever you’d like. 

If you are coming with other people, you’ll want to make sure to arrive at least 5-10 minutes before service to give you the best chance at finding a group of seats so all of you can sit together. 

If you have kids, they are welcome to join you in the main service, but we hope you will consider checking your kids into a Refinery Kids class so that both you and your child(ren) can encounter God through our unique experiences. More info about Refinery Kids here.

Our services typically begin with a song or two. Sing if you’d like, or just listen. Stand if you want, or stay seated. Hand raising is also optional. We want you to take in the experience at your comfort level. Lights, colorful graphics, and other ambient effects are used to set the tone in the room and enhance your time of worship. After another song or two, we learn more about God through a message from one of our Pastors or guest speakers. 

At some point in the service we will pass a communion tray and a giving bucket down each row. Don’t worry, someone on stage will explain what’s happening and give instructions so that you’ll know what to do. If you are visiting for the first time or you’re just checking us out, there’s no pressure to take communion or give a donation. Communion is open to all followers of Jesus and giving is another way for those who call Refinery home to worship and honor God. If you’re not ready, that’s okay. Please feel free to pass the communion tray and giving bucket to the next person in your row.

Our campus is located at the southeast corner of Loop 303 and Indian School Rd. at 16721 W. Indian School Rd., Goodyear, Arizona. 

From Indian School Rd., head south on 166th Ave. Follow the road around to the paved parking lot, and park where directed by our parking lot greeters or wherever you’d like if no greeters are on duty for that service.

Refinery Kids is available for kids from birth through 5th Grade during all 4 Sunday  services. Our Refinery Kids volunteers love kids, they are interviewed, background checked, trained, and equipped to provide a fun and amazing, age-appropriate experience for your child. When you arrive in the lobby, make your way to our Refinery Kids greeter station to check your child(ren) into class. 

If this is your first time, please arrive at least 10-15 minutes before service and be prepared to spend a few minutes providing important contact and safety information to our Refinery Kids greeter. After you’ve checked your child(ren) in for the first time, you will be able to use our self check-in station which only takes a few minutes. 

Middle School and High School students are encouraged to attend church with you or with other students in a special Student section during the 11:00am service, and invited to come back for Refinery Students at 5:30pm to connect with other students during an experience prepared just for them. 

A great place to start is REVEAL. REVEAL is something that we offer once a month to fill you in on everything Refinery: Who we are, where we came from, what we believe, and where we are going. You’ll meet some of the staff as well as other newbies, just like you. 

Once you’ve attended REVEAL you are invited to explore opportunities to serve at the church. Joining a serving team is a great way to get connected with others as you use the gifts that God has given you to expand His Kingdom. 

We encourage everyone at Refinery to get connected by joining one of our small groups that we call Life Groups. We have co-ed groups for adults and young adults, as well as groups for men and women. Life Groups meet on different days and times both at the church and in homes around our community.

When you visit us at the Refinery for the first time...this is your FIRST STEP in discovering what a journey with Jesus and His Church looks like. But God calls us to be active in our faith and He desires us to be continually growing. So you might be asking yourself, "What do I do now?"

We're here to help you take your NEXT STEP. A next step can look like committing to follow Jesus, to get baptized, to sign up to join a Life Group, or volunteer to serve at the church; whatever you feel God is calling you to do NEXT!

When someone chooses to demonstrate their decision to follow Jesus by being baptized, it’s cause for celebration! One of our Core Values at Refinery is to celebrate life change, and what better way to celebrate than with confetti cannons? 

We have baptisms in the lobby several times per month. We hope you’ll stick around to hear the story of how God has changed their life, watch them get baptized, and join in the celebration.

In the book of Matthew in the Bible, we can read the instructions that Jesus gave to His very first Disciples:

One day as Jesus was walking along the shore of the Sea of Galilee, he saw two brothers—Simon, also called Peter, and Andrew —throwing a net into the water, for they fished for a living. Jesus called out to them, “Come, follow me, and I will show you how to fish for people!” And they left their nets at once and followed him. Matthew 4:18-20

Jesus told them to drop everything. What I have for you to do is the most important thing. The same thing applies to you and me as well!

At Refinery, we describe a Disciple as someone who Knows and Follows Jesus (Come follow me), is being changed by Jesus (and I will show you how), and is committed to the mission of Jesus (to fish for people).

Later in the same book of the Bible Jesus tells  His Disciples, now that I've shown you and taught you how to be my Disciples, YOU GO and make more Disciples who will make more Disciples - here's how:

Jesus came and told his disciples, “I have been given all authority in heaven and on earth. Therefore, go and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit. Teach these new disciples to obey all the commands I have given you. And be sure of this: I am with you always, even to the end of the age.” Matthew 28:18-20
