Ridgewood Bible Church - Lockport (NY)

Emily Crisman LAC is a warm and genuine congregation of believers who love Jesus and preach the gospel on Sunday mornings as well as in their daily lives. I grew up in Lockport Alliance and return home on Holidays to visit family & attend church if home for a weekend. I have lived in many places and attended various churches, and of all churches I still hold the highest regard for LAC. The pastors are kind, compassionate and humble. Above all, everyone is a servant and demonstrates the true meaning of community. If you are broken and hurting within, if you are lost and searching, if you are hopeless, or if you just moved to the area- come to the altar at LAC. And you will find what you need. I also want to touch on the breadth and width of their ministry. My husband and I often are drawn to newer churches, however if we lived within 40 minutes Fromm LAC we would absolutely attend. We are not even in the state anymore. LAC is completely integrated into the community: involved in homeless ministry, children’s ministry, women’s ministry, care-net pregnancy, youth ministry, men’s ministry and many others. For decades they have been serving Lockport, and their impact is great. LAC is a beautiful representation of God’s mission for the church: to serve the poor, the elderly, the widowed, the orphaned and any other marginalized group of people. If you’re looking to serve the community and be on mission with other genuine Christians, LAC is for you! As part of the alliance church denomination, they take seriously the Great Commison. I am proud to have grown up in LAC and proud to see how far they have come.

Kelly Campbell This is my 2nd home. The congregation is open, friendly and caring. Its a Bible based Baptist church. We have a great pastor, and many programs from Bible studies, pot-luck dinners, nursery school, Childrens church etc. We have a phenomenal worship band/team. We are a praying church. Prayers are answered. If you want a place to belong, join and get involved. Today we decorated for Christmas. Praise God from whom all Good things come !

Sheryl Seaver One can go to Fr. Dumpfrey with any problem and it will be cleared up the next day. I appreciate the truthfulness of his service that is given out of love and a true call to Jesus Christ. If one wants to be holy, there is no place more inviting. The church is newly remodeled and is a fascination in every part. There are always clean bathrooms and a large selection of monitored books one may take out from the library. Before Covid the food pantry was open and the largest outreach for clothing and other household items. It will be locked, however, when Masses are not in session. There is a lot of ministry there.

Karen Hiatt I was there to help serve a breakfast on April 2nd. Your kitchen is amazing. I appreciate your allowing us to use your facilities. BTW I enjoyed the opportunity to drive around Lockport and really enjoyed the town. I sent pictures of Saint Dennis Church to my horrible friend Dennis and he enjoyed seeing those.

Victoria Jones Friendly, welcoming and encouraging group of Christians that reach out to help others. Amazing childrens programs, great Bible studies. Music is inviting, with nice voices. Its like seeing a Christian band.

Deborah Elizalde I was welcomed from the first moment that I entered the Church and continued to be welcomed every time I attend. Everyone is very friendly and eager to know you. The music, the message, and the overall Church community are truly wonderful.

Ruth Wendler Friendly congregation with bible based teachings and traditional services. Everyone is welcome
