Putting faith into action



"Don’t let anyone look down on you because you are young, but set an example for the believers in speech, in conduct, in love, in faith and in purity."
1 Timothy 4:12

No matter where someone is on their faith journey everyone is welcome at IMPACT. This group is meant to be a safe, non- judgemental and open space for all students. The journey one follows in Christ isn't always easy, in fact as a teenager it can be incredibly hard. We are here to support one another and help each other better understand what it means to be a child of Christ. Have questions about your faith? Want to see what we are all about? Come join us! We'd love to have you!

IMPACT consists of meeting every 1st and 3rd  Sunday from 6:30pm - 8:00pm at the church office for Bible study, worship and fellowship. Once a month we will gather for dinner at 6:00PM before study.

Our service event schedule will be posted in a few weeks. We will be scheduled to consistently volunteer  with the WHO (Winter Hospitality Overflow) starting in November through March.

Adria Charles - Director of Youth and Families

Get to know Adria

Adria met her adventure buddy and husband, Matthew, 13 years ago and they moved to Ridgefield in 2017. She graduated from WSU with a degree in psychology and began her passion of working with youth who were going through many different walks of life right after graduation. When her oldest daughter was born she set aside her love for social work and became a stay at home mom. Raising two vivacious daughters; Emma who is almost 8 and Spencer who is 4, never stopped her from staying connected within her community through volunteer work over the years. She has continuously given to her community and is now working as the Director of Youth and Family Ministry at Christ Community where God has blessed her with the opportunity to continue her passion of working with youth. When she isn't spending time with family on one adventure or another she is running ultra marathons, carrying out her passion for photography,  reading or tending to her many plants. Adria has a plethora of ideas for her ministry work and is excited to share them with the youth and their families at Christ Community.
