Hospitality Team
When you rise from your slumber on a Sunday morning, you may smile in the firm knowledge that someone who cares has risen ahead of you to pour just the perfect amount of fresh coffee grounds into percolators and filled an urn full of water ready for heating to brew that perfect cup of coffee or tea for your arrival. It will quench your thirst on a hot day and warm you up on the coldest, wettest day. Together with our smiles and hellos we want all who cross our threshold to know that they are truly welcome as we join together to worship our Heavenly Father.
If you want to join our team contact Karen Mitchinson at karenmitchinson@hotmail.com or phone (604) 855-7534.
Men’s Prayer Meeting
We are a group of men committed to pray for our families, the church, cities and nation and seek to hear what’s on God’s heart.
We meet on Tuesdays at 6:30am-7:30am. Contact Bob Reimer for more info 604-853-7384
Middle School Breakfast Club
Hot freshly made pancakes, sizzling sausages, fluffy scrambled eggs, crunchy hash browns, hot chocolate or juice topped off with generous smiles and ‘how was your weekend?’ This is what greets the students of Abbotsford Middle School on a Monday morning. Come rain or shine a bunch of us from The Bridge get together to show these students practically that God loves them. We’ve been building relationships with the students slowly but surely over the last couple of years and it’s very rewarding. The teachers at the school said they noticed a marked improvement in concentration with some of the students as a result of the breakfast that they receive from us.

Prayer Ministry Team
We are a growing community of people who have a mandate to release the healing presence of God into the hearts, minds and bodies of people. We seek to be a people who are living out the interpersonal honesty that is essential to healing and true growth. We seek to allow the love of God to lead us through our own healing journey and expect God to release His life and miracles through us.
If you are interested in growing in this ministry we invite you to contact:

Set up and Take Down Ministry Team
We are a team who love God and take joy in serving Jesus and the church by setting up chairs and other things on Sunday morning. We have an early crew for setup at 8am and another crew for takedown at 12:30pm. The early crew enjoys breakfast and connecting after we setup . This is a ministry that is not for the “faint of heart” and it is a great place to “plug in” and get to know people at the Bridge.
If you are interested in being part of the team, contact Marv Bargen marvbargen@telus.net
Sunday Servants Breakfast Ministry
At the Bridge we really value the community of people who serve in setting up for a Sunday morning. Many of them show up 2 hours ahead of time and stay after everyone else leaves. Our ministry is to serve a delicious breakfast to bless them for serving and to sustain them through a long morning. If you would like to be a part of this ministry please contact Joyce Doerksen at (604) 864-2064.
Ushers/Greeters
There is a group of men and women who serve at the Bridge on Sunday in simple ways by helping with the morning setup and afternoon take-down of the information and hospitality tables. You will also find us at the doorway to greet you as you enter, and help you (if you need it) with finding seating. You’ll see us collecting tithes and offerings after which we pray over them, commit them to God and ask for God’s continued blessing on our lives as a congregation. We like to help in practical ways and to pray for and bless you as you come.
We invite you to participate with us as an usher or one who greets (or both) at either of the two services. If you enjoy providing hospitality, welcoming people, and helping where there is a need… please contact Marv & Jill Bargen marvandjill@telus.net
Women’s Intercessory Prayer
We are a community of women who believe that God speaks, moves our hearts, and when we speak back to God, His heart is moved. We seek to partner with God’s heart through prayer to see Him change things in the church, cities, homes and families.
If you attend the Bridge regularly and would like to commit to pray regularly, join us on Wednesday mornings. Contact Agnes Doerksen for more info 604 852-1326.
