All Our Welcome

God Orders Our Steps  

One of the hopes and dreams of our multicultural ministry here in the City of Camden has been to be a "teaching site," that is, to share with others near and far our experiences and learnings as we build a church that is multi-racial, multicultural, multi-ethnic, and multi-lingual. Our native languages include English, Spanish and Portuguese. In 2008, we had grown to 140 baptized members, ¼ White, ¼ African American, ¼ Latino and ¼ of mixed ethnic background and last year added an additional 16 members. In the past two years we welcomed youth leaders from a number of Synods for an immersion experience and two times this year we will host students from the Lutheran Theological Seminary at Philadelphia as part of their first year of field rotations. As April 10, 2010 we will host the Synod Multicultural Youth Leadership Event.

Bridge of Peace is a Reconciling in Christ Congregation and strongly supports ministry to families with differently-abled children including designing specialized Family Bible School experiences. Please take some time to read our mission statement and view our year in pictures, and see how our partnership in mission with the wider church is making a difference in the city of Camden and beyond. Please take the time to meet our Deacon Board and Guidance Team by clicking on the links on the left hand side of the page. Through our Peace Center we provide many social and support services to our community including meals to our neighborhood. We also will sponsor a community garden again this year. Many of our mission team partners assist us with these efforts. Please worship with us on Sundays at 11:00 AM or Wednesday at 6:30 PM at our Peace Center. We welcome all!
