How it all started...
The Bridge Church (formerly known as Old Path Assembly of God) was founded by Pastors Charles & Shirley Atkins on March 11, 1984 in Valley, AL in a little store front building. Fourteen people attended that first service. The church was later moved to Beulah, AL.
Pastors Bill & Debbie Bryan became the Lead Pastors of The Bridge Church in August of 1991 with 32 members. In 1995, we added a 200 seat sanctuary, which now serves as our youth room and Hispanic sanctuary. Then in 2003 we expanded again, this time it was a 500 seat sanctuary, that now serves as our main auditorium.

Expanding the vision...
In 2008, The Bridge Church purchased 20+ acres across the street for future expansion. That expansion includes a Family Life Center to better serve our region, and also a new auditorium.
