RidgeWomen
Where Women Grow in Christ Together
You were created with purpose, and our heart is that you fully know your value and worth in Jesus. Ridge Women exists to create meaningful spaces where women can connect authentically, grow spiritually, and take intentional steps forward in their walk with Christ.
Through short-term groups and Bible studies, uplifting gatherings, and genuine sisterhood, we cultivate an environment where women can engage Scripture, build lasting relationships, and find encouragement for everyday life. Here, you’ll be supported as you grow in faith, share your story, and live out God’s calling.
We would love for you to join us and experience a welcoming community that inspires faith, connection, and purpose.
Below you’ll find upcoming Ridge Women gatherings and events throughout the year.

Embrace Grace
Has your life been impacted by an unplanned pregnancy?
Embrace Grace is a safe, supportive place for women navigating a surprise pregnancy. It’s normal to feel uncertain, overwhelmed, or alone—and you don’t have to walk through this season by yourself.
At Embrace Grace, we believe you can have your baby and your dreams, too. Whether you choose to parent or place your child for adoption, we are here to support, encourage, and walk alongside you.
This 12-week support group offers community, caring leaders, and meaningful connections—plus an incredible baby shower. No matter where you are in your journey, there’s a place for you here.

Mom Connect
Mom Connect is a welcoming community for moms of young children to find connection, encouragement, and support. Motherhood is beautiful—but it can also feel isolating. This group exists to remind you that you’re not alone.
Mom Connect is primarily for moms with children from infancy through age five, but mentor moms (with older children) and expecting moms are also warmly welcomed. It truly takes a village—and we want to be yours.
Please let us know if you plan to attend so we can prepare—we’d love to have you!

Ridge Women Study Groups
A Study in Colossians
What we think about Jesus matters. Our perception of Him shapes us—what we say, how we treat others, even what we think. If we paint Jesus as any less than who He is as supreme over all creation and savior of the world, not only does our theology slip, but the working out of our faith also suffers.
In this 8-session series, Louie Giglio will take us through the book of Colossians to help us form a complete picture of Jesus. What we believe about Him influences everything from our corporate worship to our relationships to our attitude toward sin. Now alive in Christ, we can live a life worthy of God instead of falling back into the ways of the world.
