November/December 2009
Family & Friends-Today we honor Pastors Greg and Stacey Schaub for 10 years of service to our church body. As we look back at the way things were and compare it to the way things are, it is no question that the Lord brought the Schaubs here for such a time as this.
It would be wise for all of us to remember the wise words, “And now, friends, we ask you to honor those leaders who work so hard for you, who have been given the responsibility of urging and guiding you along in your obedience. Overwhelm them with appreciation and love!” (1 Thessalonians 5:12-13 The Message)
What a joy it has been to see the LORD build this church under the leadership of Pastors Greg and Stacey. We encourage you to demonstrate your appreciation and love for them as the Lord leads you.
Our hope is in HIM!Gateway Leadership

“Jesus Christ is the same yesterday, today,
and forever.”Hebrews 13:8
A thought provoking book titled THINK ORANGE asks us to “imagine the impact when church and family collide.” From this concept comes the sermon series that will stimulate and challenge the way we look at church and family.Many of us believe that both the church and the family are at a crossroads. It seems we have arrived at a potentially defining moment in society in which the church is losing its influence and the home is losing its heart. The church exists to shine a light into the darkness, a light that highlights God’s goodness and reveals God’s Son. Join as a we our collective purpose and influence as a church and a family.
Be in Health Conference is coming! If you are interested in teaching to un-ravel the mysteries of disease as well as revealing pathways to health and wholeness, then this is the conference for you! Plan to attend December 11th, 12th and 13th at Crossler.
