Pastor Steven Bales
Lead Pastor, Youth Pastor, Director of Worship
Hello! I'm so happy you stopped by. I've been in ministry for over 25 years. For seven years I was a Youth Leader, 15 years as a Youth Pastor and for the past 2 years I have been the Lead Pastor. I've done all years at Ritter Church. I have a Biblical Studies Certificate from the Free Methodist Church (2017). Nine months out of the year, I am a Teaching Assistant at New Palestine Junior High School working with special needs children. In my spare time (which isn't much!) I enjoy time with my family, playing board games, watching my son play baseball, and catching a Christian concert. My family includes Krissy, my wife of 24 years, daughter Emily, and son Eli. We would love to have you join us on Sunday!
