Latest from the Bridge Church
Dear Bridge Family and Friends,
We are nearing the end of a very exciting transition. Almost one year ago (August 21st 2023), Pastor Bill announced he would be retiring as Senior Pastor after 15 years of serving at The Bridge. Since then, we have put together a search team who has worked for months on completing a job description and church profile. They have poured over lots resumes and spent numerous hours speaking to candidates. I am excited to announce they have made a selection and recommended that person to the board. Join us Sunday as we share more details about this person and what the next steps will be moving forward. You won’t want to miss it.

Annual Back to School Prayer Walk

The Bridge Church Reno
Please consider joining us on the evening of August 7th at 5pm for our annual back to school prayer walk. We will send teams of 2-4 people out to several school campuses in our area to pray. We will pray for the students, teachers, and administrators for the upcoming 2024-2025 school year. This is a great opportunity to come together as a church and ask God to provide safety, wisdom, and his leading for the upcoming school year. We will meet in the church at 5pm and spend some time in prayer specifically for our new senior pastor. For the opportunites and changes we are expecting and a revival of passion for discipleship, service and being great ambassadors for Christ. Then we will send the teams out at 6pm.
