A Stewardship Community Joyfully Offering God Our Time, Talent & Treasure

Our Lady of the Ridge Mission Statement

Through worship, prayer, and sharing the Gospel Message of Our Savior, Jesus Christ, we offer our parish family the opportunity to develop a personal relationship with God.

Transformed by His Spirit, our parishioners go forth into the larger community to minister to all of God’s people, share the message of Jesus with others, and be a living witness to our faith.
