Scotland | Dave Goldschmidt
The people of Edinburgh, Scotland, desperately need hope, love, and Jesus. Bridge Family Church is responding to this cry, but renovations to their building will allow them to fully meet the needs of the people in the heart of downtown.
DESCRIPTION: Renovations will include updated and fresh kids and youth areas, new flooring and paint throughout, office space remodeling, plumbing, heating, cosmetics, as well as a brand new coffee shop space. Edinburgh is a coffee culture, so the cafe will be a beautiful, inviting space open to the public to introduce people to Jesus.
BENEFIT: The heart of downtown gives Bridge Family Church the opportunity to truly pour into the people of Edinburgh. Once this project is completed, people can hear about Jesus through many outreaches, the coffee shop, as well as kids and youth ministry. Families will be changed for generations as you partner to give, serve, and build hope for the people of Scotland.

Project Launched!
Bridge Family Church met in a community center for 9 years and in 2021 God miraculously opened the door for them to rent a church home. The building is 115 years old and hadn’t been used by regularly for Sunday worship for several years. Its a two story building and phase 1 was to rent the upper level and renovate the space as our main church hall. The downstairs level has been rented out by the same company for 45+ years and miraculously, they decided the place was no longer suited for their needs and are moving out December of 2023. The owners of the building reached out to give us the opportunity to rent the entire space and turn it all into a “CHURCH USE” building once again.
