What can I expect when I visit?
No matter where you are on your spiritual journey, our desire is to make you feel at home with us. At The Bridge, you will experience upbeat worship services as well as relevant Bible teachings that will help you take the next step on your journey and give you practical application for everyday life.
What should I wear when I visit?
We encourage people to come as they are and to be comfortable. Some of our members enjoy dressing up for service, while others enjoy a more relaxed look. The choice is yours.
Will I be asked to stand and/or identify myself as a visitor?
We promise not to embarrass you in any way. We only ask that you stand briefly so we can welcome you to our ministry.
What about my children?
We place a high priority on the children's ministry at The Bridge. And it is our desire to provide a safe and loving environment that is fun and fosters growth for all ages. Should you desire, your children can experience engaging, age-appropriate teachings - separate from the adult service - designed to bring them closer to Christ. Our children’s ministry is located on the lower level of the church.
What type of music do you sing?
Our music and style of worship is one that embraces all cultures in an upbeat style. You will enjoy it!
How do I become a member or make a decision for Christ?
At the end of each worship service, you have a choice to make five decisions: to receive Jesus as Lord and Savior, to get water baptism, receive Holy Spirit baptism, rededicate your life to Christ or become a member of The Bridge. After you make a decision, our ministry team will provide direction and assistance in the areas needed.
