OUR MOTTO
“Building People, Changing Lives, One Community at a Time.”
WHO WE ARE
Bridge of Hope Deliverance Ministries & F.O.C. was birthed from a God-given vision to bridge gaps, build people, strengthen ministries, and impact communities through the transforming power of God.
The vision of “A Tabernacle on the Move” reflects a ministry that is not confined to a building, denomination, geographical location, or traditional expression of ministry. Just as the Tabernacle moved with the children of Israel according to the direction and presence of God, Bridge of Hope carries a mandate to move when God says move, go where He sends, build where He assigns, and minister wherever there is a need. At the heart of the ministry is a commitment to hope, healing, deliverance, restoration, leadership development, fellowship, and Kingdom connection.
We believe ministry extends beyond the four walls of the church. Bridge of Hope is committed to reaching people where they are, strengthening individuals and families, connecting churches and ministries, developing Kingdom leaders, and creating opportunities for people and communities to experience lasting transformation.

OUR HISTORY & CONCEPTION
A Vision Established. A Mandate Affirmed. A Legacy Continuing.
The history of Bridge of Hope is rooted in vision, obedience, and a mandate to bridge the gap.
Following the establishment of Woman of God Ministries, Inc. in 2005, the vision continued to expand. Bridge of Hope emerged as an extension of that growing Kingdom assignment, carrying a distinct mandate to connect people, strengthen leaders and ministries, cultivate Kingdom relationships, and carry the presence and transforming power of God beyond traditional ministry boundaries.
The conception of Bridge of Hope was never simply about establishing another ministry organization. It was about creating a bridge — a place where people could encounter hope, ministries could be strengthened, leaders could be developed, relationships could be established, and the work of the Kingdom could extend across communities and beyond geographical and traditional boundaries.
As the vision developed, so did the apostolic assignment entrusted to its founder, Apostle Dr. Trena D. Stephenson.

OCTOBER 12, 2013 — A HISTORIC APOSTOLIC MILESTONE
On October 12, 2013, then-Overseer Trena Stephenson was publicly consecrated and affirmed to the Office of Apostle during a Sacred Service of Affirmation and Consecration held at Healing Hearts Ministries Church in Suitland, Maryland.
The sacred service was conducted under the apostolic leadership of Chief Apostle Dr. William Billups, International Presiding Chief Prelate of Manifest Kingdom Fellowship Worldwide.
This historic occasion publicly recognized and affirmed the apostolic office and assignment Apostle Dr. Stephenson had been called to carry. The historical documents from this period preserve an important chapter in the development of Woman of God Ministries and Bridge of Hope and document the apostolic mandate connected to its founder.
“Called to Bridge the Gap and Change a Generation.”
Those words were more than a declaration for a single service. They spoke directly to the developing mandate of Bridge of Hope — to stand in the gap, build bridges, strengthen people, and carry Kingdom transformation from one community to another.
