Missions

"But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit comes on you; and you will be my witnesses in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the ends of the earth."  Acts 1:8

Bridgewood believes in missions, not just globally, but telling others the Good News wherever we are. Whether it be locally (Jerusalem), outside the city limits (Judea), into places we'd rather not go (Samaria) and way outside our comfort zone of home (the ends of the earth). As a church, we currently support missionaries who are witnesses for Jesus around the globe and locally.
