The Journey begins

Our WorshipA few praise songs, some hymns, prayers and heartfelt sharing of our community's joys and concerns. We celebrate communion every week. In addition to our regular tithes, we offer the loose change in our pockets for special causes each week so check under the couch cushions for quarters and join the fun!
Our TheologyEach of us comes to our beliefs in different ways and so we express these beliefs in different ways. Some of us refer to God as Father, Great Spirit, loving Mother or Higher Power. Methodist tradition is grounded in the theology of John Wesley who believed that our assurance of God's grace is evidence of God's love in our lives. As we live we seek social justice and when we die we go on to perfection in love.

Our PastorOur pastor, Rev. Abigail Vizcarra Perez has served in professional ministry ten years. She is in her second year of ministry in Tacoma. She specializes in children and family ministries and is proficient in Spanish.
Our StoryThe Bridge is a joining of two long-time United Methodist Churches in Tacoma: St. Paul's and Sixth Avenue. In July 2015, our sixth year as yoked congregations, we began a year of discernment. God is leading us to make some important decisions about how we will continue in ministry together.
