Will You Stretch with Our Bridge Leaders?
Sometimes life gets harder and harder. Sometimes we lose friends and family just when we need them even more. And it’s at these times that we are most open to God.
And it’s during these times that God is faithful and provides – sometimes in ways we expected and sometimes not as we expected.
Indeed, life has gotten much harder for many people because of the inflation of the past few years, the increasing cost of housing, and the destruction created by violence, whether man-made or natural disasters.
At times like this, we actually have a great opportunity. This is precisely when we want to empower more Bridge Leaders to share the amazing love of God.
Walter’s Story
“Thank you for your love and for your kindness… and the most important thing – you’ve stopped me from having more nightmares.”
Pauline’s Story
Navigating a world filled with distractions and pressures is challenging, but Bridge Leader Pauline has launched “Pause, Sip, and Ponder” to help her own generation. The program offers purpose-driven events, creative safe spaces, and mental health resources, helping young adults thrive and contribute to our community using their unique gifts.
“I wish I had this type of support when I was in my 20s,” said Jennifer, an appreciative mom who witnessed her daughter flourish through Pauline’s ministry.
Mike’s Story
Mike created a Bridges internship for Jason and just recently, Jason received an acceptance letter from one of the best universities in the United States, Uthe niversity of California, Berkeley!
Florence’s Story
Moreover, she saw neighborhoods of people of color whose interaction with the Pasadena Police was often hostile — on both sides.
Florence won community representation in communicating with the police department, which has helped both the community and the police to feel that they are partners in making the neighborhood safe.
Norm’s Story
Reading levels dropped precipitously.
In Germantown, MD, 75% of low-income 2nd graders were behind and in danger of never catching up. With your help over the past year, Bridge Leader Norm and his group of community volunteers have Extended Life by educating over 20 children to help “catch up” with their reading skills to their grade reading level.
