GateCity Students exists to ensure that every student knows that God is real, that a relationship with their Savior Jesus is available, and that they can experience the power of the Holy Spirit working in them, with them, through them, and for them. Therefore, we seek to engage in teaching and celebrating the authority and importance of God's Word, receiving His love, expressing our love for Him, and developing an intimate dialogue and communication with Him for the purpose of personal communion and fellowship.
We don’t see children’s ministry as babysitting, but as a powerful opportunity for students to experience God for themselves.
The Holy Spirit is no respecter of age. We have found that by introducing students to Him at a young age, they are able to develop a deep and vibrant relationship with Jesus.
