Planting a new church is not an easy task. It takes a lot of faith and desire along with guidance from God. Pastor Jerome Bullard answered the call a little over a year ago and took that step of faith, planting a church in Leland, North Carolina; Bridge of Life Community Church. I have now attended the Bridge of Life Community Church for almost a year and play the keyboard for the praise team.  I just wanted to say that it has been a year full of blessings and growth. The sacrifice that I see from my pastor and his wife has given me a stronger desire to serve God. We meet in a school and therefore we have to set-up and take-down every Sunday! It is not an easy task. Pastor Jerome focuses on getting the auditorium ready while his wife, Gwen, makes preparation for the kid's class and the nursery. She misses teaches during preaching because of the limited time that we have. God has seen and is seeing the sacrifice and is using it for his glory. We have had as many as 80 in attendance and have seen at least 8 souls saved. In the words of another member of our body, "God shows up every Sunday". God is blessing us physically and spiritually with growth. Pastor Jerome and his wife open up their home every Wednesday evening for a bible study that his created a group of people that not only get spiritually fed, but have a great time fellowshipping! This group encouraged a member who was impressed to start a youth bible study for teens. She is having as many as 24 every Wednesday night. God has used our pastor in many ways to promote his kingdom by having a "KINGDOM AGENDA" mind set. It's not all about desires, it's about action and results!! Church should be a hospital for sinners, not a nursing home for saints!
