Phoenixville Refuge, a mission of Iron Works Church to serve the city, is looking to partner with Good Works, a local non-profit that partners with churches and local businesses to renovate Chester County homes for those in need. Currently, there are no churches in Phoenixville involved in this mission - but you could help step into that gap.
To explore this partnership, Good Works is organizing a workday for Iron Works on October 12th, 8:30am–4pm, which will focus on renovating local homes.
Join the renovation crew! A crew of 6–8 is needed. While previous experience with home repairs and renovation is appreciated, anyone is welcome to come and help, including teens.
Or, prepare a lunch for the team if hammer-wielding isn’t your thing.
If you're interested, please contact David Wagner and Wade Pegon by September 29th.

This fall, HopeCo leaders are traveling to the United States to visit their partner churches. They will be visiting Iron Works on September 24th; and their group is planned to include CEO Al Lackey, E. Africa director Hudson Mahare, and founder Regina Chacha. While we will be sending a team there in July 2025, this is tremendous opportunity for you to get to know our partner better, right here at home.
Here’s a brief video from Al, Hudson, and Hilda about their visit.
The evening will include worship, updates on HopeCo straight from its leaders, and a brief Q&A. Ultimately, this is an opportunity for you to connect with the global church, even if you’re not participating in the 2025 HopeCo missions trip!
An RSVP would be appreciated! And, if you have any questions, the missions team would be happy to help.
If you can’t make the visit night, you can still contribute! The missions team is putting together a packet of prayers and encouragement to send back to City of Hope. Everyone (kids included!) is invited to contribute drawings, Bible verses, photos, or written prayers to be shared with City of Hope staff or children. If you are a sponsor family, this is also an opportunity for you to send a handwritten letter to your sponsored child. Please give hard copies of your contributions to Kristy Goli by Monday, September 23rd so she can put the packet together in time for the HopeCo visit.
Youth group will be kicking off for the new season with a night of fellowship, vision, and prayer for both teens and parents.
Planned Schedule:
6:00–6:30p — Meal
6:40–7:10p — Ice breaker / Game
7:15–8:00p — Kids & Parents breakout groups
