Hi, my name is Billy André, and I serve as the Lead Pastor of The Bridge Church in Santa Rosa. I’ve been in pastoral ministry for more than 25 years and hold a Master of Theological Studies degree from Gateway Seminary.
As the Pastoral Director of Grace Christian Academy, I’m passionate about partnering with families to provide a Christ-centered education that nurtures students both spiritually and academically.
My wife, Elissa, and I are high school sweethearts. She is my best friend, and we love spending time together and laughing our way through life. We are the proud parents of three adult children. Our two sons graduated from Grace Christian Academy, and I’m incredibly grateful they received an education in an environment that strengthened their faith and helped them build lifelong, Christ-centered friendships.
Outside of ministry, I enjoy rock climbing with my sons and taking our little dog on walks with my daughter. God has truly blessed me with an incredible church family at The Bridge, and I’m excited to support the ministry of Grace Christian Academy as we partner with parents to invest in the next generation.
