What is THE BRIDGE?
-Following Jesus, THE BRIDGE from death to Life.
-Becoming THE BRIDGE to our neighbors, co-workers, and friends.
-Strengthening THE BRIDGE of unity among the churches around us. The Bridge began when a small group of people who loved Jesus and came from several different churches stood on this property, what used to be a small farm and farmhouse prior to 1967, and asked God to
plant a church here to be a living, vibrant display of Jesus' love to the students, families, and staff of Big Flats Elementary. Big Flats Wesleyan Church was born! In it's 50th year, a year of vision clarification, the church reaffirmed the heart God had birthed them with; a deep longing to see Jesus revealed to the community, being a lived-out picture of Jesus' goodness, uniting with other area churches to love our neighbors well. This reaffirmation came with a new expression; a new name! The Bridge helped to establish this three-fold reality of our identity:
1) A people who follow Jesus; the Bridge from death to life
2) A people being the Bridge to our neighbors, co-workers, and friends
3) A people who build Bridges to other churches around us
With eagerness, we look forward to how we get to be a part of helping people "taste and see that the Lord is good"!
