We at LakeRidge UMC consider participation in Sunday School and Bible studies an important and necessary ingredient

for spiritual development. It is through these opportunities that wecan grow in our knowledge and love of God and Jesus Christ, develop friendships with people having the same values as we have, belong to a community of faith for support and strength, and learn about what is going on in the church.
