This is a place where we hope to share what we have been up to in Gateway, to let the whole church know of activities and aspects of church life including wider outreach and initiatives that you may not always get to witness or hear about. We want to encourage everyone with all the good and exciting projects we are part of and give space to look back, reflect on and thank God and others in our church community who serve in the local area, the city or further afield.

We are starting today by sharing about our Christmas Day Meals which were hosted at St Mark’s…

  • A massive THANK YOU to John and Lesley who cooked for and welcomed over 30 guests on Christmas Day! And a BIG thank you to Jared and Sammy who help host on the day.

 

  • We want to praise God for all the young people who came to the ChillZone social the other Saturday (including 3 non church and 8 church youth). A big THANK YOU to Hannah and the others on the team for creating space for this.

 

  • Gateway is a distribution site for purple bags, a Leeds City Council community-led campaign taking action to tackle littering in Leeds, and over the past 2 month we have given out over 200 bags to volunteers in the local area.

 

If you have an encouragement, a story, a testimony of something in church life or someone you want to thank publicly in this way please email sarah.woodger@gatewayleeds.net
