New Life Sunday       *previously New Baby Welcome

At West Bridge, we believe that every single life is a gift from God. Because of that, we don't simply want to celebrate the new lives born into our church family - we also want to mourn with those who have experienced the loss of a child through miscarriage or infant loss (Romans 12:15). 

On New Life Sunday (August 16th), we'll take time during both services to rejoice with families who have welcomed a new baby over the past year and to pray for those who have experienced the sorrow of losing a child. Our hope is that, as a church family, we would faithfully rejoice with those who rejoice and weep with those who weep.
If your family has welcomed a new baby or experienced miscarriage or infant loss within the past 12 months, we invite you to register by clicking the button below.
Starting this week:
Attributes of God | 9am: What we think about God is the most important thing about us. It informs every aspect of our lives, in the big and the small. We'd love for you to join us for this 4 week class where we will be diving into the attributes of God as we have our hearts and minds shaped by who He is. We'd love for you to join us!

Parenting with Purpose Through Every Season | 10:30am: We'd love for you to join us, whatever season you are in because every season brings new joys, challenges, and questions. The goal is to help parents develop a biblical framework of parenting that lasts from the early years all the way through the empty nest years to the grandparenting years. In light of our Ecclesiastes series, we'll explore God's wisdom for parenting through every season - shepherding our children's hearts, changing as they grow, and ultimately trusting God with what only He can do. Our hope is that you'll leave encouraged, equipped, and reminded that while every season looks different, God's purpose for parents remains the same: to faithfully point our kids to Christ.
