I'm Andrew Mayne, the campus pastor at Gateway Ormeau. Every time I walk into church, it excites me to hear the noise of kids, to see people young and old connecting with each other, and to find a diverse group of people exploring faith and being impacted by Jesus.
No matter who you are, you are welcome to join us as together we seek to follow Jesus and be an influence for good in our community.
What happens at church?
A typical Gateway service goes for 70–90 minutes and starts with worship, then some information about what's going on at church, a message from a pastor, and an opportunity to respond to the message. If you'd like, you can come to the front after the service and someone will pray with you.
You can be involved as much or as little as you like. Our welcome team members and pastors are happy to talk with you about anything that happens in a service if you're not sure.
How do I meet people?
It can be daunting going somewhere for the first time, but we're here to help. The easiest way to get started is to say hello to one of our welcome team members. You can't miss them—they're the ones in the blue shirts. They will introduce you to people similar to you and tell you more about how you can feel like you belong in no time.
Is there a place for my kids?
Families of all kinds come to Gateway. Every campus runs programs for kids during the service, where your kids can play games, meet new friends and learn about Jesus. Kidlings is for little ones, Kidzone for primary-aged kids, and Youth for highschoolers. Your kids are also welcome to stay with you during the service, and there are parents rooms where you can watch the service and look after your little one.
In Acts 2, the early church provides a powerful example of what it looks like to live with this deep commitment to Jesus. This series explores their practices and priorities, challenging us to embrace a life fully devoted to Him.
You can belong to family at Gateway, and it can happen faster than you think. Come along to learn about Gateway, meet others, and see how you can be involved in Gateway life.
Bring your questions! Alpha is a series of interactive sessions that create a safe and honest space where anyone can explore life, faith and meaning.
Belonging begins in community. Life groups are one of the most foundational ways we belong. Life groups are where our faith deepens, friendships form, and support becomes real.
Serving wherever God leads you puts the gifts God has given you to use, not to waste. It’s an invitation to grow in faith, build deep relationships, and experience the joy of living out your purpose.

Baptism isn’t about having it all figured out. It’s about saying “yes” to Jesus and committing to follow Him.
Gateway is led by Jason and Susan Elsmore, supported by a passionate team that’s committed to serving our church family and community.
