meet the team

Lake Ridge is led by a group of staff, ministry leaders, and a leadership team who are committed to serving in the Way of Jesus—with humility, heart, and a deep love for people. We believe leading is about walking alongside others, not standing above them. Our team is here to listen, support, and help shape a community where everyone belongs.

Got questions? Reach out—we’re firm believers that good things happen over a cup of coffee.
