When to go

About

• Nathan Larochelle★★★★★a month ago

  The service on Sundays is great and the pastor has a great sense of humour. The youth group on Wednesdays is also amazing. Not to mention the music is great and it feels like you're at a concert. If you want to go to church 100% you should go here.

  Jesus followers focusing on 2-way relationship with God. Offering a place to belong even before you believe anything. Attentive children's ministry with a safety check-in/pick-up system and the collaborative app, Parent Cue. My child is in the toddler room and enjoys every visit so far. Multiple volunteers serving in the toddler room allow me to be present at the chapel with confidence for my child's physical and spiritual well-being. The music is relatable and reverent. The sermons have been moving, grounded in Scripture, and insightful. So far, everyone we've met (members, first-time visitors, other newer folks like us) have been neighborly. Even when financial testimonies are shared, instead of passing a collection plate among the crowd, offerings and tithes are discreet -- truly making it between you and God. The sincere hearts here reflect God's Divine love. We're so thankful God led our family here where the thoughtfulness and integrity is evident. Also, we greatly appreciate the generous complimentary coffee, cocoa, and juice boxes (drinks allowed in the sanctuary during the service).

  This is by far the best church we've ever been to as a family, with something to offer everybody, including "Small Groups" and an amazing "Bridge Kids" program. The atmosphere is inviting, the people are welcoming, and the holy spirit is alive and thriving! The pastors don't preach "at you" at this church. They talk "to you", and show you how the scripture is relevant to the issues you're currently facing in your life. You'll be sitting in the audience and often feeling as if they're talking directly to you! If church is "not your thing", it's probably because you've been exposed to some judgemental christians over the years, who are not very christian like... or a boring church that hasn't changed with the times. This church is not like that! It's filled with awesome music, love and acceptance for all, and a staff who strive to be relevant in today's world. I highly recommend you come and try it out. There's a community of amazing people waiting to support you on your spiritual journey!

  First time today with my three kids (10, 6, 5) and loved it. Very close to where we live which is great if we want to serve and be a part of the church family. Everyone was very welcoming and the pastor’s message was very relevant to where I am in life. I’ve never been to a TEDtalk but this is what I imagine it would be like. I walked away inspired and wanting to apply what was taught. Some people would like their church to be very instructional with lots of scripture and breaking down verses and others need cultural relevancy with biblical insights to help us navigate life. This is the latter but since I’ve only been to one service, obviously it’s not comprehensive. I can only speak to first impressions and what I’ve read on their website. I’m just getting back to the faith after a long period away so I’m at a different stage than others. I don’t normally write church reviews but we’ve been to several local and as far away as Rockland but I felt the need to write this one in case you were at a similar point. I think the website calls it a church for the unchurched. Bonus points for serving equator coffee! (Don’t know if this was a one time thing but it was a nice surprise)

  The church itself brought me back to having faith in humanity again, and to follow my Savior and Lord, very good at bridging the gap and making sense of it all

  I love this Church, as they say, it's a church for unchurched people, I've been in many different churches and religions, for me doesn't matter the place because I believe in God, but my family doesn't, and they got engaged since day one. Scott, the pastor, is a great speaker who brings you from daily life to the bible stories, touching your heart. It is simple and clear to understand what we are doing wrong and how to fix it. The band is incredible and the kids' club too. I'll just add more bible content for the little ones.

  Im learning how this works and the bridge is just that. the bridge to a new adventure. I feel welcomed. I feel encouraged, I had to swallow some hard truth. Not just religiously but as a person who wants to be loved by anyone. I feel better then when i started that's good enough for me to keep going and get closer to the other side of the bridge with everyone ells. It also helps many of the staff and congregation are close to my age and they understand how to make it relatable to me

  My family and I have been attending The Bridge Church in Kanata for four years now. This church and it’s people are very warm and inviting. We all feel like we are part of a big family. They have a fabulous children’s program, youth group and young adult group as well. They have a number of small groups for adults also. I really enjoy my Tuesday evening Ladies bible study group. Great music to worship to as well as very relevant sermons. My eldest daughter and I attended a bus trip to Pennsylvania last fall organized by the church and had a fabulous trip. Please do yourself a big favour and check out the Bridge Church in Kanata.

  The Bridge is a place full of love, amazing sermons, and awesome music. It's very welcoming and fun! You just feel at home the second you walk through the doors and they have so many ways to connect and get to know them and God along the way.

  My wife and I attended one Sunday a few months ago as we were looking for a venue for an event. We stayed. We were amazed at how everything was so lively and friendly with a fantastic live band, coffee and then Scott took to the stage and delivered a powerful, interesting and often funny sermon. This is not about reading scriptures and passages from the bible, this church is about delivering relative, meaningful and thought provoking messages for todays world. The whole team care about what they do, Scott, Chris, Angie, Jeremy,, Ryan and all the others really are opening up the doors to a whole new level of worship. If you have tried church in the past and it wasn’t for you, try the Bridge, it’s a whole different thing.
