Latest from the Bridge Church
Happy Friday Bridge Church Family,
I just have to start by saying WOW! I am so incredibly proud of you all for the way you invited your friends, family, and neighbors to last week's BIG GAME SUNDAY. It was an absolutely incredible weekend—God moved in some truly amazing ways!
One of the stories that stood out to me happened on Monday morning when I got a message from someone who had attended for the first time last Sunday. She told me that she had been looking for a new church home, randomly stumbled into The Bridge during Big Game Sunday, and had no idea we were even throwing a party! But after experiencing the love, warmth, and presence of God here, she walked away knowing that this is her new church home. She let me know she is now going to be a faithful regular attender!
That’s just one of so many stories from last weekend. Bridge Church, you are making an impact, and I am so thankful for you!
Now, I want to personally invite you to join us this Sunday for another powerful time of worship, discipleship, ministry, fellowship, and evangelism! We’re kicking off a brand-new message series that I know is going to be life-changing:
"LOVE YOUR NEIGHBOR"
For the next eight Sundays, we’re going to dive deep into what it truly means to love our neighbors as ourselves (Mark 12:31). This weekend, I’ll be kicking off the series with a message titled: “The Secret to Loving Life” from 1 Peter 3:8-12
This is a series you don’t want to miss! We’re talking about deep fellowship, real community, and serving others in a way that changes lives. Bring your Bibles, invite your friends, and let’s get ready for all that God has in store as we move toward the Easter season together!
WELCOME PARTY – This Sunday After Worship!
If you’ve never attended a Bridge Welcome Party, this weekend is your chance! Right after the Worship Experience, we’ll meet in the Welcome Center for a fun, casual get-together. There will be free food, games, music, and a great chance to connect with new friends, our church staff, and others who are new to The Bridge. If you’ve been thinking about getting more involved or just want to meet some great people, this party is for you!
This is your time to invite as many friends as you can—especially those who don’t have a church home. This message series, this Sunday, this season at The Bridge…it’s too important to miss!
“Serve one another humbly in love.” – Galatians 5:13
Church, I can’t wait to see you this weekend! I’m praying for you and believing that God is going to do something powerful as we gather, worship, and grow together. Let’s make this Sunday one to remember!
See you soon!

Did everyone have a great time last Sunday? I know I did. Even though it was cold, we all enjoyed our time of worship and fellowship. Not to mention the good food. Please accept our apologies if you took your child to the nursery. The workers did not show up.. Once again I am so sorry. This week we will wrap up our series "Camp Believe It" with something special. Can't tell you what it is, so you will have to be sure to be here to find out. Really looking forward to seeing everyone on Sunday. Remember to pray for each other daily.
