Who We Are
OUR STORY
The Bridge Fellowship SoCal began as a step of faith and a deep burden for God’s Word.
In 1999, while Pastor Terry was studying at Bible College, a man approached him and shared a passage from Ephesians 4:11-13. Along with that Scripture came a simple but powerful message: God was calling him into a threefold ministry of equipping, edifying, and encouraging the body of Christ.
Fast forward many years. In 2024, after a serious health scare, the Lord made it clear that it was time to step out. While Pastor Terry was still in the hospital, friends and family began confirming the same thing in their hearts, that he was being called to shepherd and plant a new work.
In mid-August, after much prayer and confirmation, The Bridge Fellowship SoCal was launched as a Bible-teaching church with a simple desire: to see people come to Jesus, grow in His Word, and live it out in everyday life.
WHAT WE BELIEVE
We are a Bible Teaching Church committed to the foundational truths of Christianity. Our beliefs are rooted in scripture, and we strive to live out these principles in our daily lives and community outreach.
