about

The Bridge Street House of Prayer is an urban ministry/church located on the West Side of Grand
Rapids, MI. We are here for one reason above all… to see Jesus exalted. We have a great desire to see
our friends and neighbors drawn out of a lifestyle of poverty and into the marvelous light of Jesus. We
desire that the BSHOP would serve as a bridge from the chaos and despair of the streets to the full and
abundant life that Jesus offers.

Beyond our neighborhood, we believe that God is doing a great work among the youth of our city (and
around the globe). We want to see this next generation stake their rightful place as sons and daughters,
priests and prophets of God… captivated with a vision of the magnificence of Jesus, equipped to live
lives of godliness, and sent out to make Him known in our city and among the nations.

We call ourselves a House of Prayer based on God’s invitation in Isaiah 56 for all nations to come into
His house. We believe this is a picture of the church. We live a lifestyle of prayer, seeking God daily
and then going out and making Him known.

Welcome to the Bridge Street House of Prayer. Have a look around to find out a bit more about us. If

know our neighbors, and fall in love with the West Side.
