Middle + High School //
The middle and high school years are filled with growth, change, and excitement for students. Students are challenged to think about what they believe, as they take their next steps toward a faith of their own. They become a part of something bigger than themselves by doing life together with each other and their leaders.
Sundays // 9 + 11a
On Sundays, middle and high schoolers will begin service in the auditorium and will be dismissed shortly after worship in the main service. When they leave the auditorium, they will check into Ridge Students and head to their respective rooms where each group will do something fun together—a game or an ice-breaker—and then have a version of the same message from the main service that is more specifically geared for them.

Junior Leadership Team
At The Ridge, our mission is to be an inviting church that leads people into a growing relationship with God and others. Everything we do is built on that foundation. The Ridge Students Junior Leadership Team (JLT) is no different. Our goal is to identify and equip high school students in our ministry who are seeking to go deeper with Jesus through intentional apprenticeship and service done in community to form them into disciple-makers. (Ephesians 4:11-16).

Ridge Students Devotionals
The Ridge Students Devotional is a space for students and leaders to share what God is doing in their lives and encourage others in their faith journey. Each devotional is written by students and their leaders, for students—real stories, real struggles, and real hope in Jesus. Whether it’s a Bible verse that’s impacted them, a testimony of God’s faithfulness, or something He’s been teaching them lately, we hope these words can inspire and challenge others to grow in their walk with Christ.
