Who we are

We are a Spirit filled, Jesus centered ministry and church congregation based in George, South Africa.

We have a heart to see God move in our generation, to see lives transformed by His Presence. To be a “BRIDGE” in connecting people from all backgrounds to Jesus Christ.

The Journey so Far

7 years of Seeking His Presence. Established in 2016, in a small office space - Bridge  has grown from a weekly prayer meeting and Bible study, into a thriving community of believers and church congregation, impacting our community on a daily basis.

In 2021 we took a step of faith and moved to 15 Foundry Street in the downtown industrial area of George. Over the years our primary focus has stayed the same: Ministering to the Lord and Seeking His Presence.

Our Core Values

Seeking His Presence

We are a Presence-of-Jesus movement. He is our first priority in every gathering. Our services are not about being long or short—we come to worship Him and minister to Him.

Prophetic DNA

Our culture is prophetic. We embrace the spontaneity of His voice—through prophecy, through songs, and through any way He desires to speak.

Community

We love and honor community. We value every person and seek to reveal Christ in you—the hope of glory. Our heart is to build up, lift up, and bring people into Christ.

Seeing Christ in All

We believe the best of God’s Word for everyone. We choose to see people not after the flesh, but after Christ.

Word & Demonstration

We honor the Word of God in every form—through teaching, preaching, and through demonstration when He chooses to manifest His Word in power.

Holy Spirit Led

We honor the Holy Spirit—His power, His gifts, His presence, and His person. He leads us, we follow, and together we glorify the Father and the Son.

Nothing Impossible

We believe all things are possible with God. No sickness, no disease, no bondage, and no chains are too hard for the Lord.
