Bridge Church Update
Dear Bridge Family and Friends,
This week we are beginning a new series that I’ve called the Final Four. I now have four final messages to share with you before my last Sunday on April 28th. Fifteen and half years have passed so fast-it’s almost like the blink of an eye.
As I prayed and thought about what to leave with you before I go, God has made it clear to me that there are four final things that I want to say to you about what I believe really matters as we all consider the future that God has for us as we seek to faithfully follow Him into the next chapter in our lives. Four Final truths that I believe the Bridge needs to focus on as you prepare for the next person God brings to lead this Body.
We also have several people getting baptized. I’m excited that we get to celebrate the great work God is doing in lives all around us. I look forward to seeing you on Sunday and Don’t Come Alone!
Blessings,
Pastor Bill
Baptism this Sunday: April 7th we will have several people baptized. Come and celebrate their new life in Christ with us.

Retirement Party for Bill and Kim: Saturday April 20th 1-4pm The Bridge Church
We will be having a retirement party for Pastor Bill and Kim. We would love to make this a special event by having all of us participate. Please join us on Saturday April 20th at 1pm so that we can celebrate 16 amazing years of a great leadership from Pastor Bill West. If you would like to participate in giving a financial gift you can go to https://thebridgereno.com/give and under “giving type” choose “Bill West Retirement Gift.”
Kids Kingdom News We are now getting ready for our Mad Hatter's Tea Party, which will be on April 28th, from 10-2. We will have brunch cooked for us by Cowboy Tom, crafts and games. We want everyone to be able to come, so be sure to mark your calendar for it. We are still in need of volunteers for this event. If you are interested see me in Kids Kingdom or email me at kidskingdom@thebridgereno.com . Parents can eat with us, I just need to know who is coming to be sure enough food is prepared. This is an annual event, and every year I try to make it a special occasion, so let's make this the best one yet. Hope to see all of our smiling faces on Sunday.
