OUR HISTORY
Federico and Antonia are the founding pastors of Bridge City Church. They have been married for over 20 years and have four children, Federico Jr, Rizel, Matthew and Abigail. Federico and Antonia met at the Church where they served as part of the pastoral team before being sent to establish Bridge City Church. After being part of the local church for over 20 years and serving in various roles in the church for many years, they received confirmation of the dream to launch a new expression of the local church in Silver Spring, Maryland with the purpose of connecting people far from God to the life-giving hope of Jesus.
Before launching Bridge City Church, Federico was an immigration lawyer in private practice for over 15 years. He graduated from George Washington University with a degree in Political Science and from Regent University with a law degree. Federico also served in the U.S. Marines before pursuing a career in law. Antonia entered the finance field after obtaining her master’s degree from George Mason University and worked for a non-profit organization in Washington, DC before deciding to stay home. Together, they enjoy spending time with their children and going on long walks. Federico and Antonia are trying to raise a family that believes God’s love changes everything, and would be honored to have your family join them on this journey.
