Lead Pastor Bridge Church Lima Lima, OH, Preaching​/Senior

Overview

The Bridge church was established in 2019 to be a welcoming church for people who might not feel comfortable in a traditional church setting, with the desire to be a place for people who are not perfect. Our vision is to reach the community with the unchanging message of hope found in a personal relationship with Jesus. The leadership seeks to focus this vision on serving young adults and to partner with leaders who are passionate about connecting with young adults and drawing them into relationship with Jesus.
