This is the latest update on the campaign against Hope City Church and pastor Phil Bridges and wife Terra Bridges. It has been a week of success gaining new signatures and new people sharing this campaign with others. I encourage you to do the same. Despite reaching out this week, no response from either the church nor the the Bridges' family. I even reached out to Phil's son in Arkansas, Brock Bridges. I will be getting a hold of Terra's employer Theda Care in Appleton this week, possibly on Monday. I know when I originally did this, it sparked an ire from them. Unfortunately no response when I mentioned to them about their pedophile son Thomas Cade Martin who is serving 20 years in an Indiana Prison. Here is the article from the justice department directly: https://www.justice.gov/usao-sdin/pr/carmel-man-sentenced-22-years-federal-prison-sexual-exploitation-and-possession-child
Also this week I have learned that the Bridges ask for money each week above the normal offerings at the church. An 85 year old woman has given them $14,000 while she lives as a squatter and can barely survive. Sounds like the church should be helping her and not the other way around. I have confronted them on this and no response to this either. The more that I dig and am told things the more I feel this is like a cult like atmosphere. I just wish I knew how the techniques they are using to brainwash people into staying with them works. I know they use threats and tear down other churches people have left them for . If you know of anyone who has more knowledge on how things work there have them get in contact with me. Also help me get the word out and share this campaign with friends, family, co-workers and the like. I have received some push back from those who do not wish to look at this and just call me a fake or something like it, but do not know the story. I tell them and they do not respond. No surprise there. I had one person who shared get criticized for it and had to come to her aid and said hey if they want info ask me. I started and lead this charge. No response as of yet. Thank you for your support. God bless your week.
