Thank you for considering giving to our ministry. Below is our latest partner letter.This year we are gathering people in the name of Jesus

  • Our Building and Property God has blessed us with a great building and 6 acres of property in Baltimore city. We are as the neighborhood knows us "in the woods." So we have about a dozen projects of varianing size to do on the building and a lot of land scaping to do. We work every year to have park feel to our property so that many will come find our campus as a place of peace.
  • Ministry to our kids The Gates Church is in a neighborhood called Armistead Gardens. there are about 1500 homes, and one elementary/midle school that most of the neighborhood goes to. For elementary age we have the goodnews club and other kids ministry. We are trying to develop a mentoring program for middle and highschool. we have hundreds of students that could walk to our church. 
  • Essex Missional Outpost We love church planting! Our Church, in an effort to multiply, is gathering people in a place called Essex in a effort to start a new church. Several churches have dissolved in this area and there are thousands of lost people who live there. This is where the O'Donalds live.
