About new bridges

AN INTERCULTURAL FAMILY OF FAITH

WHO WE ARE

New Bridges Presbyterian Church is the merging of two churches (Mt. Eden Presbyterian Church and Westminster Hills Presbyterian Church) that came together in 2010 bridging theological, social, racial, and cultural differences.

We are an intercultural church and seek to be a church that values and upholds diversity. Many of our congregants are West African immigrants. Our denomination is the Presbyterian Church (U.S.A.) We are also a member of More Light Presbyterians.

In worship, you will experiences music from all around the world: hymns, contemporary, and West African songs. You will probably experience dance, confession, space for silence, praying over each other, and a time to eat some delicious food together.

In all that you are--your culture, race, gender, and sexuality--you are welcome here!
