Our Vision is for Gateway to be:

"A warm, joyful, diverse community that loves God and Christ, loves and accepts one another and is dedicated to reaching out to bring others to Christ."

Our Mission:

"Gateway aims to Love God and Others to bring them into a growing relationship with Christ."

Our Core Values:

• We believe there is only one true and living God and that Jesus Christ is the son of the living God.
• We believe that the Bible is God’s holy, infallible, marvelous, and complete revelation to man (2 Peter 1:3).
• We believe that Christ lived, died, and rose again on the third day just as the Scripture attests.
• We believe Christ founded the Church over which He is head.
• We believe that God wants his Church to serve, teach, share with and love all people.
• We believe that everyone "born again of the water and the Spirit" (John 3:5) has been "baptized by one Spirit into one body" (1 Corinthians 12:13) and added to that body by God "just as he wanted them to be" (1 Corinthians 12:18).
• We meet on the first day of the week to worship God as a body with communion, giving back to God according to the blessings he has given to us, prayer, singing, reading God’s word from His Holy Scripture, and hearing God’s word proclaimed in preaching.
• It is God’s will that we love Him (Deut 6:4), love one another (Lev 19:18), and love others as Christ loved (John 13:34). For it is by our love, that people will know that we are Christians (John 13:35).
• It is our goal at Gateway to help each individual and the whole congregation to Experience God, Interact with our fellow Christians, and our community, to Go Deeper spiritually by serving God, our congregation, and our community.
