Here at Ridgedale our desire is to see college students meaningfully connect to Christ and His church by encountering Christ, equipping disciples, and engaging the nations.
We seek to be a community that disciples, supports, and encourages one another to grow in our relationship with Jesus while seeing those far from Jesus come into a personal, saving relationship with Him. We want our college students to leave with more than just a degree.
Listed below are some of the ways we’d love to connect with you through our weekly programming.
College Community Groups: Sundays at 10:00 am
Our College Ministry meets weekly on Sunday mornings at 10:00am in our college ministry room (between the two services) for Bible study, prayer, and community. We often break into smaller groups and explore God’s Word together. This summer we will study through two different series. In this series, we are looking at the theology and biblical grounding of seven of the church’s classic hymns. Our hope is that by slowing down, we learn to appreciate all that we sing to God each and every week. During the second half of the summer, we will study verse by verse through the book of Colossians, specifically at the preeminence of Jesus in all things. Afterwards, head in with your friends to either our traditional or Encounter (contemporary) services as we worship corporately as the Church!
College Summer Nights Hangouts
Summer’s a great time to stay connected—and have some fun along the way. Throughout the week, we keep things simple and community-focused with a regular hangout night. Some weeks that means pickleball, other weeks it might be a movie night or something spontaneous. It’s a relaxed way to build friendships, meet new people, and stay plugged in over the summer.
Want to know what’s happening each week? Just reach out to our college pastor by email—we’d love to have you join us.
