Our Story

How it all started...

The Bridge Community Church was planted in March of 2006 with a desperate desire to see St. Francois County and our surrounding communities transformed by Christ. We began small meeting in a rented senior center for our initial membership training, but we were quickly able to move into a wedding banquet hall for our corporate gatherings. Then, by God’s grace we were able to move into our new permanent facility in 2009.

Expanding the vision...

Since 2006 we have baptized over 500 individuals. In 2012 our first team of disciples was sent out to plant City on a Hill Church in Arnold, MO. We also sent out our first church planting resident to plant Gospel Life in Cape Girardeau, MO in May of 2013. We went global in 2013 sending out our first overseas missionaries to Bangkok, Thailand. In 2023, we planted another congregation in Bonne Terre, MO. Since 2008, we have invested over $635,000 in local, regional, and global mission (church plants, international missions, youth camps, and non-profit organizations) through our annual Advent Conspiracy offering. Our story is a story of God’s grace moving through us and it is still being written today.

Where we are headed...

We want you to join God’s story unfolding here at The Bridge Community Church. We are a thriving community of faith who desire to glorify God by making disciples.
