Anew — October 24

THIS WEEK'S MESSAGE

 

The Official’s Son

 

Speaker: Pastor Dan Stockum

Series: Miracles

Scripture Focus: John 4:46-54

So many of us have prayed for healing either for ourselves or for our loved ones. We instinctively plead our request to the heavens, hoping for a miracle. Therefore, the man in this passage is quite recognizable. He is us. We share a common hope and make a common plea. This week we will study Jesus’ response to him, what it means for us, and what it foreshadows about our future. 

 

NEWS AND EVENTS

 

Opportunity to Bless Our Pastors & Staff

October is Pastor Appreciation Month, and this year we’re taking a moment to celebrate and encourage not only our pastors, but our entire Bridges staff who faithfully serve our church family all year long.


The Bridges congregation has been blessed once again this past year by the care, leadership, and dedication of our staff — God has been so good!


A fund is available for those who would like to express their appreciation financially. As you prayerfully decide how to direct your giving, we encourage you to consider to both our General Fund and the Staff Appreciation Fund. You can give via our giving page and choosing "Staff Appreciation" from the Fund dropdown menu.


Thank you for your love, encouragement, and generosity!

Monthly Giving Report as of August 31, 2026

Giving for General Fund and NEXT85 will be monthly with data through the prior month end. The change simplifies the work for our team and gives time to provide reporting on both our General Fund Operations and NEXT85 program. Giving comes in several forms and needs to be sorted out appropriately with enough time to provide accurate information. Thank you for giving to the Kingdom work here at Bridges.
