• Community Restoration, One Life at a Time

    H.I.S. BridgeBuilders exists to reconcile lost souls to Jesus Christ. To accomplish our purpose, we unite Christians across cities to restore urban communities through education, health, economic and spiritual development.

    This video explains how we combine education and economic development, in strategic partnerships with businesses, to help restore the lives of individuals, their families, and their communities.
  • Why We Exist

    H.I.S. BridgeBuilders exists to reconcile souls to Jesus Christ by bringing tangible expression of the gospel to urban communities.

    As our brothers and sisters become spiritually mature, economically self-sufficient, and relationally functional, they restore their own communities and God is glorified.
  • How We Serve

    H.I.S. BridgeBuilders applies a comprehensive approach. We equip individuals for the workplace and help them find jobs. We find the gaps in health needs and fill them. We seek ways to stimulate the economy in impoverished neighborhoods. And we encourage spiritual growth through Bible studies, mentoring, church planting, and evangelism.
  • What We Do

    H.I.S. BridgeBuilders unites Christians across cities to restore urban communities through education, health, economic development, and spiritual development.

I first met Juan Villegas at H.I.S. BridgeBuilders headquarters in February 2012. Juan had indicated that he wanted a mentor as he was seeking to get his life back on track. Juan was enrolled in the H.I.S. BridgeBuilders machine shop class desiring a fresh start.

The new home for H.I.S.BridgeBuilders in San Antonio, 710 Arthur Street—A Gathering Place, will be dedicated at 1:00 pm on Thursday, July 11th.
