The vision at Bridgetown is In Portland As It Is In Heaven. We live this out by Practicing the Way of Jesus Together in Portland. We organize our church around apprenticing with Jesus in community, gathering around a stage on Sundays and around the table throughout the week in smaller Bridgetown Communities. We believe that to be an apprentice of Jesus of Nazareth is to order our lives around three goals: be with Jesus, become like Jesus, and do what Jesus did. Our dream is that as we live this way, our lives, our communities, and our city will be transformed.
