Planning Your Visit To Summit Ridge

At Summit Ridge Community Church, we feel that it's OUR responsibility to "clear the way" for you to come to church. We want you to be able to experience the inspirational music, encouraging messages, friendly people, and enjoyable atmosphere that are part of Summit Ridge Community Church.

What time are your worship services?

Our worship service is on Sundays at 9:30am. Service lasts for about 1 hour and 10 min., and our music is authentic and inter-generational, mostly modern contemporary. Following the service, we have Summit Groups for all ages at 10:45am which meets for one hour.

Will I have to stand and introduce myself?

As our guest you will not be asked to say, sign, or do anything. We want you to feel comfortable, relax, and experience the service without worrying. Guests are always welcome. We all were guests at one time and remember that it can sometimes be an awkward experience. At Summit Ridge, we strive to make your visit with us as enjoyable as possible. In fact, we think you will want to invite your friends the next week!

How should I dress?

Don’t worry about what to wear. We’re more concerned about meeting your real-life needs. So, dress casually and enjoy our upbeat music and practical message from the Bible that deal with real-life issues.

Do you offer childcare?

Yes, we offer childcare during the worship service for infants and preschool and during Summit Groups. We also offer classes for children thru 5th grade during the worship service where they learn about Jesus in a safe and affirming environment.

Our Story

We're Better Together

Summit Ridge Community Church is a merger between Living Hope Community Church and Northwest Community Church. Sensing God's leading, the leaders of both churches began dreaming in 2018 about what kind of impact we could have on our community for Jesus Christ if we merged. After a time of the two churches worshipping together and a period of prayer and discernment, the two churches merged in January of 2019 and became Summit Ridge Community Church.

Our Ministries

At Summit Ridge Community Church, we are driven by a simple mission; to make disciples who serve Christ by serving people. In pursuing this mission we are guided by our core values: Grace, Community, Generosity, and Serving as well as our affiliation with the Brethren Church headquartered in Ashland, Ohio. Our values, our mission, and our identity define what we do and the ministries we engage in.

Community Impact

As part of our mission, we intentionally seek to partner with existing ministries and agencies to share the love of Jesus in tangible ways. Some of the agencies we partner with include Gap Ministries, Job Path, Youth on their Own, Interfaith Community Services, and Samaritan's Purse.

Summit Groups

Summit Groups are six-week sessions in which people gather to grow together as followers of Jesus Christ. Summit Groups meet after the worship service. You can join a summit group at anytime, and we offer a variety of summit groups including women, children, students, and mix groups.
