Meet The Ratner Family

Heiden and Neena Ratner grew up in Las Vegas, NV where God has called them together to plant WALK Church. Heiden and Neena did not grow up in typical Christian households, however, God did a radical work in their lives during their early college years and they have never looked back. It was during one of Heiden’s first-ever Bible Studies in Las Vegas, which Neena had attended, that they established a lasting friendship.
Two years later they decided to turn their friendship into a relationship and on November 18, 2011, Heiden and Neena were married in Israel, where Heiden was playing professional basketball. Heiden and Neena have four sons, Epaph (8), Asa (6), and Heiden Jr. (4), and their newest addition baby Lion (2). Together the Ratner’s share a love for the people of Las Vegas and are excited to be a part of God’s Kingdom activity in the city through planting WALK Church.

The Dream God Has Given Us For Walk Church

Our dream has always been to plant a life-giving facility that would reach the city of Las Vegas seven days a week. We believe God has more for our church and part of what that looks like is a location that we can call home. Watch the video below to learn more about "the more" God has for us.
