Bridges will accomplish its purpose by these W.I.N. values:
WE over Me
Inspired Innovation
Networking
WE over ME: The personification of the Body of Christ working cooperatively together through our churches, missions and ministry partnerships
Inspired Innovation: Providing training and support for churches and pastors to fulfill the Great Commission throughout the Bay Area
Networking: Bringing both sides of the Bay’s churches together to work in tandem with one another through regional connections and regularly occurring monthly, quarterly, and annual events. Providing a conduit of connection for churches with stakeholders and ministry partners.
The Bridges Administrative Team, Executive Board, Regional Coordinators, and partners endeavor to provide resources, encouragement, and community to empower churches and their leaders (full-time pastors, bivocational, church planters, and urban missionaries) to make a life transforming impact on the communities within their sphere of influence and entrusted in their care.
