Sunday worship outside on July 4
This Sunday, in honor of the 4th of July, the Bridge worship service will be held outside in the high school courtyard. Bring lawn chairs if you have 'em. If you have extras for visitors and you could bring those too that would be great!
It's supposed to be pretty warm so you might want to bring something to drink.
See you Sunday!

Pray
________________________________________
Ephesians
1:16-20
16I have not stopped giving thanks for
you, remembering you in my prayers.
17I
keep asking that the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the glorious Father,
may give you the Spirit of wisdom and revelation, so that you
may know Him better.
18I pray also that the
eyes of your heart may be enlightened in order that you may know the
hope to which He has called you, the riches of His glorious inheritance
in the saints, 19and His incomparably great
power for us who believe. That power is like the working of His mighty
strength, 20which He exerted in Christ when He raised him from the dead
and seated him at His right hand in the
heavenly realms,
21far above all rule and authority, power
and dominion, and every title that can be given, not only in the present
age but also in the one to come.
22And God
placed all things under His feet and appointed Him to be head over
everything for the church, 23which is His
body, the fullness of Him who fills everything in every way.
~Roger

What is the Bridge?
The Bridge is a church in Allegan, Michigan that
is for the beaten-up, the burned-out, and the just plain bored. If you spend time with us, you will hear that a
lot - it is a central idea of how we want to interact with the community
around us.
We want to be a place that
reflects the love of Jesus. Everyone is welcome, with
no prerequisites of church background or prior belief. Bring your faith
and your doubt, your joy and your tears, your praise and your
selfishness. We're not perfect, but we'll love you as best as we can.

Thanks for supporting the
Bridge! Let us know if we can help you in any way.
