GO! Teams
At Gateway, we desire to encourage and equip people to actively work to “Change their World” as they follow the Way of Christ. In Matthew 28 we see that Jesus tells us to “go” and share the love, life and freedom available in Him to those both in our neighborhood and all around the world! One of the ways we practically do this is by offering GO! Teams. GO! Teams are typically a week-long experience where Gatewayers display the love and attitude of Christ to people around the world by meeting physical, spiritual, and relational needs. Our teams partner with established organizations, joining in the ongoing transformation taking place through Christ-followers and churches, resulting in life change both in those being served AND in those serving!
