We’re turning 20!
The year was 1998, Google was founded, the Goo Goo Dolls dominated radio stations (what’s with all the Goo?), the MP3 was invented, you could buy a house in Ankeny at the median price of $150,000 and tucked away in Pastor Mike’s house a small church started. This October, The Ridge is excited to be celebrating our 20th year sharing the good news to our Ankeny community. Push pause on other activities on Sunday October 14 and plan to join us in celebrating. It’s a birthday worthy of a celebration!
Be part of the celebration!
Take a moment to share how The Ridge has impacted your life. It could be anything – a story from a small group, baptism or Alpha class that had a lifelong impact on you. We would like to capture your story and share them as part of our testimony to God as a church.
Join us!
Sunday, October 14, 4-6:00pm at The Ridge
Current and past Ridgers are welcome to a birthday party like no other! Participate in a cake eating contest and test your knowledge of 90s trivia Jeopardy-style. Face painting? Check. Balloon artist? Check. Bounce house … probably. And if fanfare isn’t your thing, we will also have food and a fun slide show of historical images.
Fill the truck!
What’s a birthday celebration without presents! Please help us fill the truck with 20 of the most needed items in the community. Download and print the list of items, start shopping and bring the items with you to church on Sunday October 14th. We will be providing these birthday “presents” to the following ministries: DMARC, The Blessing Box Food Pantry, Alpha Women’s Ministry, Hope Ministries, Ankeny Fresh Start and JOPPA. Let’s bless our community and FILL THE TRUCK!
