The Bridge Our website holds an image of a bridge as a
symbol of our ministry and lifestyle. Of course, on the cheesy side of
things, we are the Bridges, so a bridge seems logical; however a deeper
significance lays behind that image. We desire to be a bridge into other peoples
lives—whether that is our next door neighbor, our family, or those who we are
ministering to. Through the way that we live our lives and treat others, we
want to show Christ’s love to those around us! Through our church planting ministry and
friendships, we want to build bridges into the communities as we seek to
bring others into a Christian community that serves our God. Specifically as
we launch out to the mission field, our desire is to not only be bridges but
also to build bridges into the lives of others through outreaches that are
geared around service. One example might be teaching English lessons for free
as a way of serving people (building bridges) so that we can develop
relationships with them and their community. By building bridges this way and
many others, we will foster relationships that provide opportunities for us
to share the gospel and start churches in areas with little or no Christians. |
