san fernando valley police support & outreach events
Thanks to your generosity we were able to raise $11,066 for our LAPD Outreaches. We so appreciate your support!
TBBF has embarked in an all-church effort to show our love and total support to our men and women in blue!
Because of your love and generosity, we have reached our goal and raised enough funds to provide an In-N-Out lunch for our 4 neighboring police divisions (Van Nuys, West Valley, Devonshire, and Topanga).

WALK/RUN FOR LIFE & HARVEST FESTIVAL 2020
Thanks to your generosity! We reached our goal of 15,000 for the our Walk For Life Outreach. We so appreciate your support!
The Open Arms Pregnancy Clinic is hosting the Walk/Run For Life & Harvest Festival 2020. It is a peaceful, positive event giving people a way to apply their pro-life convictions, raise support and increase awareness in our community.
This year, The Bridge Bible Fellowship will put together our own team to show our support. We desire to see as many in our church as possible join the event in October by coming out and walking with us, and by financially supporting The Open Arms Pregnancy Clinic’s life-saving ministry. Our goal is to raise $15,000 for the ministry.
Your support helps provide compassionate assistance to hundreds of women, men, and students every year as they offer comprehensive and positive alternatives to abortion.
There will be live music, a harvest-themed photo booth, bounce house, children’s activities & more. For sale: Barbecue Burgers (boxed), pre-packaged baked goods, iced coffee & blueberry lemonade. Click on the “Event Details” button below for more information.

OPERATION CHRISTMAS CHILD
The mission of Operation Christmas Child is to provide God’s love in a tangible way to children in need around the world, and together with the local church worldwide, to share the Good News of Jesus Christ.
Every year, Samaritan’s Purse collects Operation Christmas Child shoeboxes filled with toys and other fun items and delivers them to children in need around the world in partnership with local churches. Each gift, prayerfully and uniquely packed by churches or groups like ours, is an opportunity for the Gospel to transform the life of a child, a family, and a community.
We want to join this effort and fill as many Christmas Child shoeboxes as possible to bless these children and families.
Boxes will be available at our 5pm outdoor Worship Service starting Sunday, Oct 11. You can also pick them up from the church office (Monday thru Thursday during office hours).
Please plan to return filled boxes no later than November 8th.
- Runs 10/11 – 11/8.
- You can pick up as many boxes as you are willing to fill.
Boxes are filled with safe and acceptable items for either boy or girl, according to age. - Guidelines of what items can be given, shipping instructions, etc are provided when you pick up a box. You can also click on the button below.
