At Providence, we are better together. We partner with organizations, ministries, and individuals who are continuing Christ's work outside of our influence as a church. Learn more about our different partnerships using our partnership directory:
The idea for the Bridge Academy and Community Center was planted in 2001 by Steve and Stefanie Wilson while they were attending Calvary Fellowship Church in Lionville, PA. With assistance from the CFC Elders, volunteers from CFC's Bridge Ministry and a few outreach events, we were able to successfully plant small seeds of a future ministry.
In early 2002, a separate 501(c)(3) (non-profit organization) was established. During 2002 a Board of Directors was recruited and the search for a permanent location begun. God blessed our efforts through identifying a property at 570 Olive St. and enabling the BACC to take occupancy in December.
In 2008, Jordan Crans was hired as the Executive Director.
With each passing year, the Bridge Academy draws more children and families. God is at work through the ministries here. The BACC is a place where the Gospel is preached and the tangible love of Christ is shown.
The Westside Community center exists to build community through relationships. The WCC runs an after-school program for middle school and high school students, a skate spot, and community garden during the week.
Neema is a US Non-profit and Community Based Organization in Kenya providing skills training, counseling and discipleship to vulnerable young women from Kitale and surrounding villages.
