Serve Our World
Join what God is doing beyond our community as we support missionaries, respond to disasters, and partner with global ministries. Whether you give, go, pray, or serve, you can help bring practical help and lasting hope to our world.
- Disaster Response – GoServ Global – We partner with GoServ Global because when disaster strikes, the need doesn’t end after the first wave of relief leaves. This partnership gives The Ridge a hands-on way to serve communities in the long rebuilding process by sending skilled volunteers to help restore homes, rebuild what was lost, and share the love of Jesus with people walking through recovery.
- Child Relief Foundation (Liberia) -We partner with Child Relief Foundation because we believe education can open doors and create lasting change for children and communities. This partnership gives The Ridge a meaningful way to invest in Christ-centered education and the long-term growth of students and families in Liberia.
- Operation Christmas Child - We partner with Operation Christmas Child because a simple gift can communicate the love of Jesus in a powerful way. This gives The Ridge an opportunity each holiday season to bless children around the world with joy, practical gifts, and the hope of the Gospel.
- Full Gospel Church of God (Belize) - We partner with Full Gospel Church of God because we’ve seen how God is working through this church to care for its community in practical and spiritual ways. Since 2016, this partnership has given The Ridge the opportunity to build lasting relationships in Belize and support local ministry through mission trips, encouragement, a school feeding program, and ongoing support.
- Shoulder-2-Shoulder (Zambia) - We partner with Shoulder-2-Shoulder because we want to come alongside vulnerable communities with practical support and the love of Christ. Through this partnership, The Ridge helps provide food relief, agricultural support, and encouragement to families and church partners in Zambia.
- Zambia Iowa Agricultural Partners (ZIAP) - We partner with Zambia Iowa Agricultural Partners (ZIAP) because addressing hunger also means helping families build sustainable futures. This partnership gives The Ridge an opportunity to support farmers in Zambia with training and tools that strengthen livelihoods and care for communities over the long term.
- Missionaries - We support our missionaries because sending people out is one of the ways The Ridge lives out the Great Commission. Each of these missionaries has a meaningful connection to our church—they are former Ridge members who, as young adults, were called to unique places to serve the Lord. It’s a joy for us to pray for them, encourage them, and be part of what God is doing through their ministry around the world.
- Short-term Trips – We make room for short-term trips because sometimes God grows our faith most when we step out and serve. These trips give people from The Ridge the opportunity to come alongside our mission partners, encourage their work, and use their gifts to serve in meaningful ways.
