"Inviting All to Know Christ, Grow in Christ, and Share in Christ's Love"

WELCOME to the Bridge: a non-traditional worship community
of the First Presbyterian Church in Elkhart, Indiana.

Sunday mornings at 9:30, we gather downstairs in a cafe-like worshiping atmosphere with dim lights, candles, comfortable seating, hot coffee , and snacks.  We’re a community where you can come as you are: young or old, strong or weak, happy or sad, faithful or searching, tie or tie-dyed T-shirt.  After all, that's what WE do!

Our worship is warm and interactive, touching all the senses with God’s grace. Whether you sing or just listen, the band will move you.  Wherever you are on your spiritual journey, the message will reach you.  Whatever may be going on in your life, the community will support you.  We believe we are more than a worship service; we are an open and accepting community, seeking to live our faith together.  No one will judge you here: we understand and admit that we're all broken and searching to live in the love of Jesus Christ.  As we experience Christ’s love in worship, we are sent inward – we offer classes and small groups to nourish spiritual growth. We are also sent outward, serving others -- after all, isn't that what God wants us to do:
Seek out those in need everywhere?

Come join us Sunday mornings at 9:30.
The coffee, hot chocolate, and doughnuts are on us. WELCOME!
