Gateway's Youth Ministry is designed to engage students in grades 7-12 with the life changing message of the Gospel. Through Bible studies, life groups, service projects, and fellowships, the youth of Gateway are given opportunities to grow in having a dynamic relationship with Jesus and to be equipped to make a difference with their lives wherever they are.
CJ Falcione, our associate pastor, is joined by a team of adults from Gateway who love students and invest in their lives. Through community with these adults leaders and with one another, the youth of Gateway are challenged to grow in their knowledge of God and to glorify God with their lives.
WEEKLY SCHEDULE
Sunday Bible Study ~ 9 a.m.
On Sunday mornings, Gateway's youth have a Bible study time together in the youth rooms. Last year we focused on the "what" and "why" of our faith. We are currently going through a verse by verse study of the Sermon on the Mount. Topics change over time but are always gospel focused.
Life Groups ~ Sundays, 6:30 p.m.
(Currently paused for summer / Resuming Fall
2022)
We believe in a multi-generational approach to relationship building between the students and believers of all ages in the local church. One way we accomplish this is by arranging small groups every other Sunday night in the homes of various church members. The homes and groupings regularly rotate to allow more relationship building within the church that normally would not happen, such as between students and empty-nesters or adults without teenage children. Since the schedule regularly changes, please contact the church to learn the current list of homes and where you can connect. The normal meeting involves desserts, a fun "getting to know you" game, shared testimonies, and discussion of that morning's sermon.
Wednesday Evenings ~ 6 p.m.
On Wednesday nights, the youth gather for a fun activity, eat pizza, study the Bible together, and meet as small groups. Join us each week as we look deeply into God's Word together.
