About Us

We both have a rich heritage in Christianity and a deep hunger for God and to know    Him more.  We're very passionate about the new church, and believe in the vision,  purpose, and plans for the success of it.  We have modeled faithfulness, loyalty and passion for the cause of Christ.  Pat and I have lived in Columbus Georgia for 16 years.  We have solid roots in this city. We have two boys and a girl. Our family were members of North Highland Assembly of God in Columbus Georgia for nearly fifteen years.  North Highland Church is a major contributor and supporter of Gateway Church.
