Come early! You don’t want to miss the fun, and great family photo opportunities! There will be plenty of hot cocoa, coffee, Christmas sweets & treats, and holiday music for you to enjoy in the lobby before the service.
We have plenty of seats for everyone! If you don’t want to miss joyful videos, and an amazing musical opener, we recommend being seated in the auditorium 10 minutes before the service begins.
There’s something special about this time of year, and we look forward to celebrating it with you!

Christmas Eve Luminaries
Light Up The Ridge

The luminaries will light up the sidewalks and driveway, and those attending the services will have an unforgettable experience driving through them! This project will need 20 volunteers for set-up before the 3pm service, and 10 volunteers for tear-down following the 6pm service. Help us create a magical experience!

Volunteers are needed for 3pm. If you would like to serve during this service on Christmas Eve, please sign up below. Questions? Email jill.dishion@theridge.church.
