If you’re looking for a church, you may want to visit Orchard Ridge Church in Washington Township, located on Mound Road just south of 30 Mile Road. My wife, Theresa, and I attended a Sunday morning service (which we do when we get a free Sunday) we came away refreshed and impressed.
From the moment we arrived, we were welcomed by friendly folks — this is a congregation with a true sense of community and warmth. The service was filled with uplifting worshipful music for all to join in. It was a gathering where music, prayers, and messages flowed naturally together, drawing everyone into genuine praise.

The church’s beautiful new facility adds to the experience — thoughtfully designed, filled with light, and with an interesting story and faithfulness behind its development. There’s a sense that this building isn’t just a place for meetings but a home for ministry, prayer, and fellowship.
Pastor Steve leads the congregation with humility and depth, offering expository preaching — teaching chapter by chapter through Scripture. His approach was both unique and enlightening, opening the Word of God in a way that spoke clearly to both hearts and minds. The message was personal yet deeply rooted in clear biblical truth, with a calm and thoughtful style that invites reflection and growth.

Theresa and I both felt we had discovered something special at Orchard Ridge Church — a body of believers who love God, love one another, and love their neighbors. If you’re seeking a Christ-centered, welcoming, and biblically grounded church in the northern suburbs of Metro Detroit, we wholeheartedly recommend you visit.
Come as you are — and you just might find yourself staying awhile.
