Gateway Community Church - Houston, TX

Gateway Community Church is church made up of people from various spiritual, socio-economical and ethnic backgrounds. It is a diverse congregation with one purpose in mind - growing more and more into the image of Christ. As we do that, we grow in our service to others.

The Vision of Gateway Community Church

Through the teaching of God's Word and through living examples, we will build a holistic ministry that will bring restoration, empowerment and edification to the unsaved, the unchurched, and the untaught in our local, national and global communities.

Ministry Purpose
Gateway Community Church is established to develop a body of believers that fulfills the Great Commission on earth (Matthews 28:18-20) for God's honor and glory.

This local body of believers emphasizes the preaching, teaching, and the personal application of God's Word for the purpose of restoration, empowerment, and edification.

Ministry Pillars

The three pillars of this ministry are:

1. Faith - 2 Corinthians 5:7 (NKJV) - "For we walk by faith and not by sight."

Hebrews 11:1 (NKJV) - "Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen."

Hebrews 11:6 (NKJV) - "But without faith it is impossible to please Him, for he who comes to God must believe that He is, and that He is a rewarder of those who diligently seek Him."

The principle of faith is vital to every believer in Christ Jesus. Without it, we cannot please God. With it, we become the children of God, redeemed members of the body of Christ, and heirs of all the promises of God that are written in His Word. Faith in God's Word and His ability to perform it forms the core of the teaching of this ministry.

2. Family - Acts 17:26 (NKJV) - "And He has made from one blood every nation of men to dwell on all the face of the earth, and has determined their preappointed times and the boundaries of their dwellings."

Galatians 6:10 (NKJV) - "Therefore, as we have opportunity, let us do good to all, especially to those who are of the household of faith."

The Biblical concept of the family has been under attack by the enemy for centuries. This ministry strives to teach and model the concept of family the way that God desires it to be, and seeks to aid members of the community in building strong families by providing programs specifically designed for families.

3. Fellowship - Acts 2:42 (NKJV) - "And they continued steadfastly in the apostles' doctrine and fellowship, in the breaking of bread, and in prayers."

Gateway Community Church is a place that not only meets the spiritual needs of people, but also the need of belonging that many people experience in life. An emphasis is placed on fellowship and providing regular opportunities for fellowship.
