WELCOME TO
CURRENT SERIES - PRESCHOOL
Brave is not the first word most people think of when they think of themselves. But when we think of God, when we think of ourselves - the powerful God who is always with us and can help us be brave - even the most fearful of us can be strong and courageous with God!
CURRENT SERIES - ELEMENTARY
Trying to do something on your own is difficult. When we look at God's Big Story, we can see that no matter the situation, when we follow God, we can have confidence that He is with us.
ABOUT OUR MINISTRY
SR Kids is our Children's Ministry focused on Loving God and Changing the World, One Life at a Time.
In our program, we use our SouthRidge Discipleship Rhythms as a foundation for what we believe and what we do together. We desire to create environments where our kids can:
Celebrate God
Serve Others Share our Faith Be Together Follow Jesus every day
First time? We are excited to welcome your family to our ministry. Come see us on Sunday mornings at our check-in area located just inside the main entrance of the building.
