Welcome to RidgeKids!

We are excited to partner with you as your child journeys from birth through sixth-grade. We believe that you are your child's greatest influencer, and we consider it a privilege to team up with you.  Our purpose is to partner with parents and families to help kids take their faith to the Next Level. We want to grow, serve, and share our faith together.

Join us every Sunday morning for RidgeKids at 9:00 or 10:45

Check out what we are learning in RidgeKids and RidgeKids Jr. in the month of JULY!

RidgeKids - Living and loving like Jesus sounds great in theory, but may be a little hard in practice. However, with the help of God’s Spirit, we don’t have to do it alone. When we follow Jesus, God’s Spirit transforms us, shaping us every day into who God has called us to be and how God is calling us to live. Live It Out is not JUST a theme, but a call to action. It encourages kids to actively live out their faith through their words and interactions with others. And the more we become like Jesus, the more we can make a true difference in this world and in the lives of those around us.

Bible Verse: “ Our God is a God who strengthens and encourages you. May he give you the same attitude toward one another that Christ Jesus had.” Romans 15:5, NIrV

RidgeKids Jr.- This month, we will continue to live it out and discover how to love like Jesus with our preschoolers and toddlers. Jesus showed us how to love in many ways as He helped people, was kind to them, forgave them, and was patient and gentle toward them. Jesus was consistently showing us what love looks like.  There is another way we can learn how to love like Jesus and that is by doing what Jesus says. Jesus gave us very clear instructions on what to do, and then Jesus gave us the gift of His Holy Spirit to guide us and help us do it. That is why we want our preschoolers and toddlers to learn that I can do what Jesus says . . . because they can! Preschoolers can do what Jesus says and show his love to everyone everywhere!

Bible Verse: “BE KIND AND LOVING TO EACH OTHER.” EPHESIANS 4:32, NCV

Kids Church

Every Sunday during 9:00 and 10:45 services we work to create a great experience for your kids to begin their journey with Jesus. We want them to love coming to church so much that they look forward to it all week!

  • RidgeKids Nursery is designed for parents to have an optional space to go with their newborns during services. You can find the nursery on the main level, just behind the Café.

  • RidgeKids JR meets in the early childhood wing on the lower level and is designed to meet the developmental needs of kids eighteen months through Kindergarten.

  • RidgeKids Church meets in the lower level gym for first through sixth-graders.

We take security very seriously so that you can rest easy, knowing that your kids are in good hands. Your children will be supervised and taught by background-checked volunteers who have been trained to follow approved policies and procedures. Our check-in system ensures that your children are released only to you (or to the people you designate).

NEW HERE? You can plan your visit and register your kids so you will be ready to go on Sunday morning! Text “Register for RidgeKids Sunday” to (360)552-7794. You can also catch RidgeKids online on Facebook or YouTube on a Sunday morning, or during the week.  Go here for any of these links!

Kids Church - We are having in-person services and we have three options for you and your kids. Everyone in your family can experience RidgeKids in-person on Sundays at 9:00 or 10:45 AM or at our Spanish service Saturday night at 7:00 PM.

RidgeKids Next Level Small Groups. Are your kids ready to go to the Next Level with Jesus? This fall, winter, and spring we are offering RidgeKids Next Level Small Group for kids 4th-6th grade. This group will help kids develop an authentic faith and make deeper connections as they learn to GROW - SERVE - SHARE their faith. We will meet at church one night a week from 5:30- 7:00 PM. To register, text “RidgeKids Next Level” to (360) 552-7794

Family Events. We sponsor many family events throughout the year. Watch for our Next Level events, sports ministry, Easter services, Camps/Vacation Bible School in June, and Fall Activities in October!

We want your family to enjoy quality time together however we can support that. Check the calendar for upcoming family events!

We believe that your kids will have the best possible adventure with Jesus when we (the Church) partner with you (their parents). We will help build their faith foundation in a fun environment every weekend, and then we will send them home with you to continue the discussion. That might sound a bit scary, but we are here to help! Every week we provide a “Parent Cue” to guide you to Read a Bible story with your kids, Discuss God’s truth and Pray with your kids.

Look for these familiar faces at RidgeKids Sunday Mornings and Events!
