At The Bridge, we believe in simplicity. Instead of a calendar stuffed with programs and events, we want to offer a clear pathway for spiritual growth. We call this pathway Next Steps.
The first step we encourage everyone to take is to attend our Newcomers Lunch.
Join us the first Sunday of every month to find out more about our church over lunch.
No matter how long you have been attending The Bridge it is never to late to attend the Newcomers Lunch.
What is the Newcomers Lunch?
A meeting on the first Sunday of every month (with exceptions due to holidays) at 11:30 pm. This will give you the opportunity to meet our staff and have a conversation with others. This is the best way to get to know more about The Bridge and how to get involved. This time will help you get connected to a small group, ministry team, learn more about our vision and values, how to get involved, and what next steps are available for you to take.
Let us know you are coming by filling out the form below.

Growth Track will be offered every four to six weeks and is made up of four classes, or steps, that you can take.
stepONE: Newcomers Lunch! is all about knowing God and being part of the church.
stepTWO: Grow! teaches the four habits of spiritual growth.
stepTHREE: Discover! helps you discover how God has uniquely shaped you to serve him.
stepFOUR: Serve! is all about how to share your story and live your life on mission with Jesus.
Coming soon…
We soon will offer an online version of these steps for you to work through and learn from while in the comfort of your home…
If you’ve attended stepONE and you’re ready to sign our Membership Covenant, you can do so by either printing this Covenant, signing it, and handing it to one of our Pastors on Sunday, or by completing the form below.
What is the Membership Covenant?
The Membership Covenant clarifies the responsibilities of membership at The Bridge. Membership is less about rights and privileges and more about our shared responsibility to fulfill the Great Commission and Great Commandment together. It reads as follows…
