Stepping into Simplicity: 

What Stays, What Goes, What Needs to Be Added.
Debra Evans (author of more than 15 books)
March 24, 2012   
10:00 a.m. - noon
$5 for bunch, but please do not let money stop you from joining us!
Come meet other amazing women, enjoy a yummy breakfast, and soak up great teaching & rich discussion.

When Jesus went to dinner at Martha and Mary’s home, the two sisters’ couldn’t have been more different in the way they responded to His presence. One served and did all the work by herself, while the other sat and simply listened. Yet, of these two exceptional sisters, Christ commended the student/listener rather than the servant/worker. Why? 

Through more deeply delving into and discussing this revealing sibling story, author Debra Evans will show us how stepping into simplicity requires honestly examining our hearts and defining the boundary lines that shape our lives.  "One thing only is essential, and Mary has chosen it—it's the main course, and won't be taken from her."  Luke 10:42 MSG

Starting This Sunday: How BIG Is Your GOD? | Feb 12th-Mar 4th

Posted by Amber Andrade

There’s a quote that says, “What comes into our minds when we think about God is the most important thing about us.”  Those thoughts influence what we think about everything else and how we experience life. Answering the big who and why and if questions about God and his existence is one of the strongest drives we have as humans. Clues are all around us in nature, in people, in our relationships and our own emotions. Join us as we open our eyes and use our minds to uncover the clues that point to a God you would love to know.

Join us February 12, 19, 26 & March 4 at one of our campuses:

Northwest Austin (McNeil & 183) | South Austin (William Cannon & MoPac) | Online

We say it all the time around here, “Come as you are…but don’t stay that way!” You can’t miss that we are a church that is committed to personal growth and life-change.

The beginning of the new year is the perfect time to re-up that commitment, to take a good look at your life and think about the areas that you want to trust God to grow and change this year. A few small shifts can change your whole trajectory and move you closer to the you that God intended you to be. Join us this Sunday for some inspiration and practical next steps at 9:45 or 11:30 at South campus or 9:30, 11, 12:30 at our McNeil campus or online!

Help share God's LOVE this Valentine's Day -- Tues February 14 -- at our Foundation Communities dinner!

We still need a small group or just a group of friends and family to host this dinner. 

This is a fantastic way to serve those in your community and meet Gateway folks at the same time. Join us any month to try it out - or encourage your small group to host a meal.  

Every 2nd Tuesday of the month,  we host a supper club for the residents at Skyline Terrace. We’d like for small groups to “sponsor” each month so different groups have the opportunity to serve, however there will be some regulars there each month for continuity and the dinners are open to all Gateway’ers to join.

2012 DATES:

  • Tues Jan 10 - Jennifer Loftis's small group - thanks to all who came out -- it was awesome!
  • Tues Feb 14 - NEED A SMALL GROUP TO HOST - let's make it a special Valentine's Day for the residents!
  • Tues March 13 - NEED A SMALL GROUP TO HOST

Why Foundation Communities?

They are a wonderful organization that provides high-quality affordable housing that enables families and individuals with low incomes to permanently improve their educational and economic standing.  FC surrounds their residents with resources and tools to get back on their feet; from free day care at some locations to computer labs, ESL classes and access to free tax preparation.

In the process of hosting our first Supper Club in Dec 2010, we learned that it’s not as hard as we thought to make a hot and healthy meal for a large crowd. We can do it, with a smile, and have enough time to mingle, and get to know each other.  Learn more about FC: http://www.foundcom.org

For more information on how you and your small group can help out - contact Juanita Lee - juanitapareja@gmail.com or 512.788.4604. Thank you!

Hey Ladies,

 

Come join us for a time of connection and encouragement over a yummy breakfast.  We'll have a chance to get to know each other and hear an interactive talk by Sherilyn Villareal entitled "The Ups and Downs of the Highs and Lows of Life".  

 

Here's a breif description of what Sherilyn will share with us...

Suffering or Prosperity? If offered both, which would you choose? We typically think of Suffering as something to be avoided at all cost and Prosperity as something to run hard after - as though suffering were all bad and prosperity all good. From a practical standpoint, this makes a ton of sense. But spiritually speaking, both seasons actually have their unique challenges, and both have their unique opportunities.  In this talk, we’ll explore the ups and downs of the highs and lows of life and consider insights about avoiding common pitfalls of each.

 

RSVP by clicking "attend" or email Sandra Salas at Sandra.Salas@hotmail.com
