A Christ-centered, Bible-believing, missionary-minded church in Centralia, Illinois — a spiritual home for every nation, culture and family.


Pastor Jean Jacob Jeudy gave his life to Christ at nine years old in Port-au-Prince, Haiti. A retired U.S. Army officer with more than 20 years of service, he founded Walk By Faith International Missionary Church in El Paso, Texas, and today leads The Bridge in Centralia. Evangelist Marie Stephanie Rachelle Jeudy — Sister Rachelle — has served in ministry for more than 30 years as a worship leader, mentor and encourager of women and children.
From the pulpit and from his study, Pastor Jean Jacob Jeudy opens the Scriptures week after week — in English, French and Kreyòl — for the church family in Centralia and believers watching online around the world.
