Mission Statement
An inter-denominational Christian holistic ministry called to provide relationally based programs which empower the under-resouced and mobilize Acadiana Christians to their social responsibility.
Description
Bridge Ministry was established in 2003 as a non-profit organization with a vision to reach out to the under-resourced neighborhoods of our community. The empowerment of the people is the greatest need in these neighborhoods. Bridge Ministry is not a relief organization and will not do "for" the people but will do "with" the people. If we do "for" for the people they become dependent, but if we do "with" the people they learn how to do for themselves. It is through trusting and caring relationships that empowerment is developed. People have hope when they have the power to change their destinies and achieve their dreams.
