Authentic relationships
One of the four doors of Gateway is to have authentic relationships.
An authentic vertical relationship with God and an authentic horizontal relationship with people.
At Gateway, we focus our ministries so that we would reach the goal of having authentic relationship with God and with people as a reflection of God's love for the church.
Sunday Worship
Music
Praise, sound and projection ministries create an atmosphere for Sunday worship service to usher the congregation into singing praise.
Ushers/Greeters
Greeters welcome and provide nametags to regular attenders and newcomers as they arrive for worship service; Ushers assist people in finding seats, prepare and pass out bulletins, and collect tithes and offerings.
Children
We have a ministry for 12 months to 2 1/2 years old that imparts the love and example of Jesus Christ to the families of infants and toddlers. Little Lambs allows parents to worship and hear the Word of God with confidence that their children are being cared for in a loving, giving, and joyous atmosphere.
Our ministry for 2 1/2 to 4 1/2 Years introduces children to Jesus in a fun and loving environment with a structured format while still incorporating individualized play.
Our Pre-K/Kindergarten class is committed to teach children about Jesus' love and to help them understand how special each one is to Him.
Our 1st & 2nd Grade class and 3rd & 4th Grade class helps acquaint children with God's love in fun and creative ways. The program is dedicated to laying a foundation of who God is through the teaching of Bible stories and memory verses.
Our 5th & 6th Grade class helps guide children in understanding the meaning of a personal relationship with Christ. Children will grow through Bible stories that challenge them with practical applications for their lives.
youth
We look to build a strong foundation of faith for jr. high (6th-8th grade) and help disciple high school students (9th-12th grade) live out their faith in a very important time in their lives.
Friday Night Study
We meet up in the Loft at 7:30pm and end at 9:30pm with a little time of refreshments afterward.
Sunday Second Hour
Because we don't have a separate worship service for youth group, we meet after service to discuss and go over Sunday's message and spend time in prayer together.

college
In this unique and exciting stage of life, establishing a strong foundation in the Word is an important part of finding our true identity and direction in life. Our college ministry desires to root college students in God's Word, connect them to authentic community and to equip them for ministry.
We meet on Sundays in the Loft at 12:00pm. Contact Pastor Joe at joe@gatewayfriends.org for more information!
