The Gate is blessed to have a leadership team who are truly dedicated to Jesus Christ and accomplishing His will. There are many leaders at The Gate who make up the core leadership team.  We hope you will take time to develop relationship with all of them and grow from their gifting in every area of Christian growth.  As a starter we want you to know a little about the founders and the current Senior Pastors.
