World and local missions

We believe that as a church it is imperative that we follow the Great Commission in taking the Gospel to the world.  Here at Life Gate we emphasize missions through our giving at all age levels, and in serving and giving locally to our community.  


Below you will find a list of the missionaries we currently support, the country or ministry they serve in, and each photo is a link to contact information for those who would like to leave an encouraging word!


Please pray over these missionaries as you browse!

when we pray

Prayer is a powerful tool for any missionary.  Not only the prayer that they offer themselves.  But the prayer of support from you!  


There are many stories of God doing the miraculous for a missionary at the same moment others were lifting them before the throne.
