RSM Ugly Sweater Christmas Party
December 14, 2025
Christmas Eve Service at 4pm
Strip away the distractions of the season and refocus on the heart of Christmas: the birth of Christ as the ultimate gift. Consider that true peace, hope, and joy aren’t found in traditions or trimmings, but in the simplicity that God sent Jesus to save the world.
Join us at Ridgewood where you can expect a family-friendly, candlelight service with beautiful worship songs and a compelling message. Children’s activity bags will be available to help your child stay engaged as you worship together.
Invite Your Friends and Family to Our 4pm Christmas Eve Service
This postcard makes it easy to invite your friends, family and neighbors to Ridgewood for Christmas Eve service. People often say that they came to church because they received a personal invitation from a friend. Pick up as many postcards as you like at the Ridgewood reception desk.
Give a Christmas Gift with a Lasting Impact!
This Christmas plant a church in Africa as a gift that will make a lasting impression on the receiver and the villagers who hear the name Jesus for the first time. When you donate $400 to start a church, fill out the recipient’s name on this certificate and wrap it up as a generous gift that will bring salvation to an entire African village.
Know Before You Go
Ridgewood Church will have a moving, family-friendly candlelight Christmas Eve service at 4pm. You can expect beautiful worship music and a compelling message for the occasion. Arrive early and our ushers will help you find great seats!
Childcare
The candlelight Christmas Eve service at 4pm is designed for the whole family to worship together. We will not provide childcare, but we will have activity bags for children with lots of fun things to keep your child engaged as you worship together.
Parking
We’d suggest parking on the north side of the church where there is ample, free parking. There is also parking available on the south side of the building with a convenient entrance.
What to Wear
Most people dress casually in jeans, shirts or sweaters. But hey, if you like to dress up on Christmas Eve, that’s okay too. Those in ugly Christmas sweaters will NOT be turned away. 🙂
A Christmas Hot Chocoate Bar!
There will be a free HOT CHOCOLATE BAR with hot chocolate and toppings to delight kids and adults alike right after the service! You’ll also find a decaf coffee station for those coffee lovers.
Worship Style
We usually open with prayer and worship to our Lord, Jesus. We sing together with the worship team leading songs and playing guitars, piano, keyboard and drums. A mix of current Christian music and hymns begin the service followed by a compelling message from our lead Pastor, Paul Johnson. We close with prayer and a song. The service lasts approximately an hour.
Decorated for Christmas and Accessible
Ridgewood is decked out for Christmas and is beautifully designed with conversational seating where friendships develop. You’ll enjoy a beautifully remodeled church that is wheel chair accessible and compliant with the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA).
