The Bridge on Facebook

The Bridge has a group on Facebook that I'd really like to use as a two-way communication tool and an online community for us!

It's a great way for us to stay connected to one another throughout the week and for you to get a hold of me.  We can also communicate to one another about get togethers (birthday parties, bon fires, etc.) and anything else that's going on in our lives both good and bad.

If you don't already have a Facebook account it is very simple and FREE.  Just go to www.facebook.com and fill out the brief information blocks and you're in!  Once you have a Facebook account just type "the Bridge" into the search window in the upper right hand corner to find the Bridge's group page.

Then you can look for info, discussions, event reminders and random thoughts on here regularly or post your own!

If you have questions about it let me know.

Greeters

We'd like to find people who would be excited to greet folks coming into church on Sunday mornings.  It's important that EVERYONE coming to the Bridge on Sunday mornings, new folks AND regular attenders, be met with a smile and a warm welcome.

Our goal is to get enough people so greeters would only be on the schedule once every 6-8 weeks.

Talk to Lindsey Kerber on Sunday or email her at: brad.lindsey.kerber@gmail.com.
