East Ridge Baptist Church

About this church

East Ridge Baptist Church begins Sunday School at 9:15 a.m., followed by worship at 10:30 and an evening service at 6:30. The Wednesday church schedule starts at 6 p.m. Nursery care is provided during activities and worship, and children's ministry spans newborns through sixth grade. Children ages four through seven may attend Children's Church during Sunday morning worship. Students in grades seven through twelve use the same 9:15 Sunday School hour, then have youth gatherings Sunday at 5:30 p.m. and Wednesday at 6. Monthly Salt and Light outings combine recreation with service, and First Fridays add dinner and Bible study.

This Southern Baptist congregation was formed in 2005 by the merger of Twelfth Street Baptist and Murray Street Baptist churches, each with more than fifty years of history. It moved into the Highway 397 building in 2010 and calls itself a “Fellowship of Love.” First-time guests are offered a welcome at the door and a visitor information bag. Community ministries include a Crisis Closet providing food and essentials at limited intervals, a front-door Blessing Box, homeless outreach, and annual Vacation Bible School. Adults wanting both education and worship can arrive at 9:15 and remain for 10:30. Teenagers have separate evening times, while families should use the age limits to distinguish Children's Church from the broader nursery-through-sixth-grade ministry.
