Our History

In the fall of 1992, eighteen people met together in a tiny living room to discuss the start of a church that would be different from what many of them had experienced in the past.  They knew God to be real in their own lives and had a strong desire ot share His love with others.

They also knew that many people had given up on church, finding it irrelevant and boring. They prayed that God would enable them to build a church that warmly welcomed people to investigate the compelling truths about Jesus Christ as presented in the Bible.

Out of that handful of people, CrossBridge Community Church was born. Less than one year later, the church had out-grown the living room, and began meeting at the Box Factory in Fairport. In the spring of 1994, with about 75 people in attendance, the church relocated to St. John Fisher College, then during the summer of 2003, God moved us to the Techniplex Mall in East Rochester. In the fall of 2006, He relocated us to The Charles Finney School where we meet today.

CrossBridge has purchased 21 acres of land in Perinton and is in the planning stages of designing its own facility.

Through all the growth and changes, the original purpose of CrossBridge continues. The weekly services are designed to communicate to everyone the incredible Biblical truth that their lives matter to God! 


Our Future

At CrossBridge Community Church we are building the community of Christ to reach the community for Christ.

The characteristic that has marked CrossBridge from the start has been the willingness of the community of Christ to welcome others to come and start their spiritual journey "right where they are."
