Kids Ministry Series
What does it mean to put God first when everyone else is following the crowd?
Kids will journey through the story of Israel’s shift from judges to kings, and the prophets God sent to guide them. Even when God's people wanted to look like the nations around them, God remained faithful, reminding them that He is the one true King who is always with us.
Through these powerful stories, your children will learn:
Who God Is: The ultimate King who is always in charge and always present.
How to Follow: What it means to listen to God’s voice and obey Him above all else.
God’s Faithful Heart: How God lovingly prepares and guides His people, even when they make mistakes.
Bring your kids ready for exciting stories, fun activities, and deep truths about trusting the King of kings. We can't wait to see you there!

Baptisms!
Are you ready to take the next step in your faith journey?
If you have made the personal decision to follow Jesus, we invite you to be baptized! Baptism is a meaningful, outward expression of an inward transformation - a public declaration that you are leaving your old life behind to walk in the newness of life found in Christ (Romans 6:4).
By choosing to be baptized, you are obeying Jesus' direct call to His disciples (Matthew 28:19) and openly confessing your trust in Him before your church community.
Whether you have recently accepted Christ or have been following Him for a while and are ready to make this public pledge of a good conscience before God, we would love to celebrate this milestone with you.
Interested? Sign up HERE! Deadline for sign up is November 1.
(Preparation class will be on November 2, 7pm at Gateway South Osborne)
Christmas Potluck
You are warmly invited to join us for our annual Christmas Potluck Lunch on Sunday, November 29, immediately following the church service.
While the church will be providing the turkey and stuffing, we ask everyone to bring a favorite side dish, salad, or dessert to share and make our holiday feast complete.
Sign-up sheets will be available in the foyer starting November 6, so be sure to let us know what delicious item you’ll be bringing.
We can’t wait to celebrate the season with you!
Experience Bethlehem Live !
Experience the sights, smells, and sounds, of Bethlehem’s first Christmas over 2000 years ago.
Bethlehem LIVE! is a living nativity - a real live enactment of the town of Bethlehem and the events surrounding the birth of Jesus Christ.
Your journey begins as you enter the Time Tunnel and travel back in time 2,000 years! Your tour group will be guided by a shepherd who has come forward in time to take you back to experience the sights, sounds and smells of Bethlehem’s first Christmas.
As you leave Bethlehem, you will be welcomed back to the present time by a host who will explain the relevance of Jesus’ birth to our lives today. Your “journey” ends with refreshments offered by some volunteers eager to help weary pilgrims.
Jesus Christ’s birth changed history forever. But Bethlehem LIVE! portrays so much more than a one-time historical event. Jesus continues to change lives today through His message of hope, life and love.
He has changed our lives. We hope He will change yours too.
Carols by Candlelight
Carols by Candlelight will once again fill our sanctuary this Christmas Eve at Gateway South Osborne, and we hope you'll join us.
This year, we'll reflect on the wonder of Christ's birth and the glory of the King we celebrate, whose name is above every name.
Help bring the event to life! We welcome volunteers of all ages (6+) and abilities to be part of this special evening, both on Christmas Eve and in the weeks leading up to it. Whether you enjoy reading Scripture, greeting guests, baking treats or sharing your musical gifts, there's a place for you! We'd love to hear from you, even if you're simply curious about getting involved. If you're interested in volunteering, or would like to learn more, please contact Alyssa Ward (alyssaw@gatewaywinnipeg.com).
Whether you’re new to Gateway or have celebrated with us for years, we hope Carols by Candlelight will be a meaningful moment to pause, worship and anchor your Christmas in the hope and wonder of Jesus.
Nourish Women's Conference
The Gateway North Women's Ministry is excited to invite all the women of Gateway - including Gateway South & East - to a very special event!

Bethlehem Live - Volunteers Welcomed!
Let’s go on MISSION together!
Every year, Bethlehem LIVE! brings the story of Jesus’ birth to life for thousands in our community.

Jesus Christ’s birth changed history forever, and His message of hope, life, and love continues to transform lives today.
We need you to help make this vision a reality.
Serving at Bethlehem LIVE! is a powerful opportunity to impact others, but the beauty of this mission is that it changes us, too. When we give of our time, energy, and hearts to help others experience the reality of Jesus' birth, our own faith is deepened and renewed.

Gateway 100
Are you new to Gateway, and would you like to get to know us better?
Gateway 100 includes two classes in which you will hear the heart behind Gateway's vision statement, and learn about our 10 Core Commitments. Classes provide you with an opportunity to ask questions and to consider a commitment to membership.
Gateway 100 is the first step of the Gateway Path for becoming involved at Gateway. It provides a context for those who are new to Gateway to discover if God is leading you to be a committed member of Gateway Church.
By hearing about Gateway’s vision and core commitments, people new to Gateway will be able to know if they can be aligned with what God is doing in our congregations. It’s also a great way to meet others in Gateway.
Attendance at both classes is required for involvement in particular areas of ministry at Gateway.
Kid's Ministry - New Series!
Step into the epic journey of the Israelites as they head toward the Promised Land!
Even when faced with giant obstacles, God consistently proved His faithfulness to His people. Kids will explore these stories for themselves through heroes like Joshua and Gideon, so they can see that faith isn't just something they hear about, but something they live out.
By diving into God's Word firsthand, kids will discover that the same God who hears us, leads us, makes a way for us, and gives us courage is actively working in their own lives today.

Family Forum
The elders and SODT invite the church family to a Family Forum on Sunday, June 7, at 7:00 PM.
As part of a healthy season of reflection, the leadership team will share updates and future plans regarding the following agreements:
We agree that God desires to transition GSO’s Senior Leadership to the next generation, and that Norm and Niki are both integral to this process.
We have a heart for the next generation and are praying about who God may be calling to lead the church in the future, and what those timelines might be.
We agree GSO needs more than 2 elders, ideally a team of 3-5, as soon as possible.
We agree that questions about male and female leadership need to be settled, as the current lack of clarity contributes to frustration and uncertainty.
This is a time for transparent conversation, unity, and looking forward together.
The evening will include a Q&A session, and we welcome you to submit your questions in advance HERE.
All are encouraged to attend as we seek God's direction for our future in openness and faith.
