Andrews Bridge Christian Fellowship, Christiana, Pennsylvania, USA, began in 1997 as an outreach of the Bart Mennonite Church. The Bart congregation began monthly prayer meetings seeking guidance on planting a church in the Andrews Bridge area. Bart established three home groups that formed the core of the new congregation.

The first Sunday morning service in the former Andrews Bridge Mennonite Fellowship was held 17 January 1999. The first members were transfers from the Bart congregation. Ray "Butch" Marvin was the first leader.

In about 2004 the Andrews Bridge Christian Fellowship withdrew from the Atlantic Coast Conference and Mennonite Church USA. It became a member of the Alliance of Mennonite Evangelical Congregations.
