Pastoral care

At theBridge, we walk with you through grief and joy, crisis and celebration. Whether you need prayer, biblical counsel, or simply a listening ear, our Pastoral Care team is here to help you take the next step toward Jesus.
Carry each other’s burdens, and in this way you will fulfill the law of Christ. (Galatians 6:2)
