| In 1995 ,
H.I.S. BridgeBuilders was formed to help “build
bridges” of hope through a personal relationship
with Jesus Christ and to connect God’s people
to bring about revival and restoration of our cities.
The sponsoring church for BridgeBuilders is Prestonwood
Baptist Church led by Dr. Jack Graham. Through
Dr. Graham’s continued support and blessing,
BridgeBuilders has developed into a city-reaching
ministry with offices in four cities: Dallas,
San Antonio, Boston, and Clarksburg, West Virginia and plans to expand to
10 cities by 2009. The Dallas branch operates out of three main communities: Turner Courts, Cedar Springs and Rhoads Terrace. Inherent in this
development is the continued relationship between
suburban and urban churches to connect and mobilize
their resources to bring hope to our cities. The
late Dr. E.K. Bailey of Concord Missionary Baptist
Church was a mentor to BridgeBuilders’ President
Mike Fechner (Minister of Spiritual Development
at Prestonwood Baptist Church) to help teach and
authenticate the vision and implementation of the
ministry. BridgeBuilders seeks to serve and connect
pastors, corporate leaders, government officials
and indigenous leaders to bring restoration and
revival to cities. |
