Join the life of Bridgetown Church
The journey of discipleship is not linear, it’s cyclical. There’s no one-size-fits-all approach when it comes to following Jesus. This pathway is simply a way of finding yourself within this house we call Bridgetown Church and an invitation to move deeper into our family. Move at your pace, in the way that matches your journey, and in the timing that fits your limits. You are welcome here.

Sunday Gatherings are the primary way we gather as a church to worship together, learn the Scriptures, pray for one another, and create space to hear from the Spirit. It is in these moments together that we collectively embody Jesus and his kingdom.

Outside of Sunday Gatherings, we want to provide extra spaces of deeper learning. Gather with us for one of our midweek lectures to listen to teachings about Scripture, justice, and more.

Do you have questions and doubts about faith? Alpha is an open and informal conversation about life, spirituality, and the person of Jesus without judgement or pressure. We would love to hear your thoughts and questions as we explore these themes together without the pressured atmosphere that usually comes with these conversations.

To “practice the way of Jesus” is to adopt the lifestyle of Jesus, to put his teachings into practice in all aspects of your life. As we live this way, we are transformed from the inside out.

Bridgetown Communities are the way we gather during the week around the table to be the people of Jesus in our city. We eat together, pray for one another, and share life together. It is in these ordinary rhythms of life that we become more like Jesus. Each Bridgetown Community is neighborhood-based. As we live and work in proximity to each other, we are able to partner in the mission of God to see his Kingdom come in Portland as it is in heaven.
