Rising 6th graders! Middle school is just around the corner, and we can’t wait to welcome you to Ridge Students!

Plan to join us for Level Up, an event designed to prep and prepare you for the transition from Ridge Kids to Ridge Students. Meet your RS directors and leaders and make new friends! You’ll also get to test drive the games, teaching, and worship you’ll experience when you are promoted to Ridge Students in June.

  • Kimberly Ralph

    Kimberly Ralph

    Kimberly moved to Austin from Detroit when she was 21 years old. She loves hot weather and could not wait to get out of the snow. She attended Liberty University and graduated with a Communications-TV/Radio/Film degree. She is married to John with three adult children who still live in Austin. Kimberly has a passion for home decorating and landscape maintenance, so if she’s not shopping for home décor, you can find her with a chainsaw in hand out in the yard. A runner for over 22 years, she now enjoys time on the trail at Ladybird Lake, walking her dogs, and light biking. Her passion is talking with and encouraging high school students, college students, and young adults about life, God’s promise of a ‘future and a hope’ and how Jesus has a plan.

    JP serves as the Middle School Director for Austin Ridge Southwest. He moved to Austin from Houston in 2012 and graduated from Concordia University Texas. He served in a Student Ministry role at the Bee Cave campus for five years and is back for more. His desire is for the youth to find their identity in Jesus now rather than later so they can be a force in their schools and respective communities. In his free time, he enjoys making pancakes, bowling, taking walks, and, recently, putt-putt.

  • Madi Lundberg

    Madi Lundberg

    Madi is originally from Colorado and made the move to Austin in May 2025 after graduating from Grand Canyon University in Phoenix, Arizona. She grew up surrounded by mountains, snow, and hockey (Go Avs!), but has quickly fallen in love with all things Austin—especially the sunshine, community, and coffee shops. Madi always has a book in hand, a coffee nearby, and a heart for helping others feel known, loved, and valued. She’s thankful to be a part of what God is doing here and excited to see how He continues to move in and through this city!
