Every February, The Bridge looks beyond itself to bring redemptive change to our world. Each year we choose a missions project that will bring Kingdom change in obedience to the Great Commission of Jesus Christ (Matthew 28:18-20). To date these projects have raised over $1,000,000 and affected over 20 countries around the globe. Check out the links below for details about this year's cause.
