Gateway Baptist

God calls each one of us to be His witnesses (Acts 1:8). As His disciples, when we make it our mission to get involved in the things on God’s heart, He takes what we offer and blesses, multiples and uses it to touch the lives of others. Gateway short-term teams are an opportunity to partner with God and others to meet needs. This is sometimes achieved in practical ways, but always with the love and motivation of sharing the life-changing message of Jesus. Your life will be impacted and transformed as you see the lives of others touched, so come and join us for a 1–3 week short-term experience.
