LifeBridge Family Community Church, Tupperville, ON

LifeBridge began in 2011 as a satellite campus of Evangel Community Church in Chatham, ON. The congregation and leadership team of Evangel had a vision to expand to the east of Chatham by establishing another site in Thamesville. In November 2010 they invited Pastor Andrew and Pam Bauer and their family to join the Evangel staff team and to plan the launch of this new campus. The launch took place on Easter Sunday, April 24th, 2011.
In January 2014, the Evangel board, together with the leadership in the Thamesville campus, decided that in order for this young congregation to best achieve the vision that God had given them, they should transition to become their own church. In August of 2014, LifeBridge purchased a building at 2 Lemuel Street that was in need of much renovation work, and took on a retro-fit project to transform the building into a Ministry Centre to accommodate our worship gatherings, but also with which to serve our community. These are exciting days as this church – now LifeBridge Family Church – is finding ways to reach our region with the life-giving message of Jesus.
