BRIDGE

BRIDGE is a strategic gathering that aims to connect the African diaspora in North America with strategic mission efforts in Africa. It is a dynamic platform that helps African-led mission movements grow and encourages cooperation between diaspora populations and African ministries. The event shows how God is getting individuals of African heritage involved in international missions in a big way, both on the continent and beyond.

BRIDGE 2025 had representation from 48 organizations. The consultation facilitated connections among participants, encouraged relationship-building, and helped attendees develop an understanding of diverse mission efforts. The consultation encouraged people of African descent to collaborate on God-centered missions and challenged participants to explore non-Western perspectives. Emphasis was placed on mutual transformation, discernment, and alignment of personal and professional pursuits with God’s mission. Overall, BRIDGE proved to be a crucial resource for mission learning, teamwork, and personal growth.
