Senior Adult Ministry

The Ridge Senior Ministry is dedicated to providing older adults (typically those 55+, though we’re not sticklers!) with opportunities to serve, connect and grow in their faith.

All ministries listed below are open to new members. The best way to get connected is by reaching out to the group leader. And if you’re not sure where to start, we can help with that, too! Just reach out to Joni Pine, and she’ll point you in the right direction.
