Livewire Getaway

A weekend of friends, games, late nights, and times with God that you will talk about the rest of your life.

Cambridge is about 1.5 hours away from our church in London and has lots of different activities to do. We are also going to Sega City Playdium in Mississauga on Saturday afternoon for about 4 hours. It has some of the best variety of video games, activities, games and batting cages in the world.

Retreats are a time to getaway from the ordinary, some time with old friends, new friends and of course Jesus. It is on retreat weekends that a lot of student really discover who Jesus is and what He has to do with their life. And once they know, they are never the same again.

Get ready for Livewire Getaway!

It is my goal this weekend, to open up our ears to the truth about Jesus, and have a lot of fun making memories in the process.

Pastor Blair

Parent Prayer Group

Our children are in a war and many of them do not even know they are in the midst of a battle. This warfare is happening in our homes, our cities, even our churches.

Never before have our schools been such a battleground. Our children in schools, whether, elementary, secondary or post secondary, face many challenges – bullying, peer pressure, drugs, sex, guns, poverty, suicide, anxiety, and the list goes on and on.

Many of our adult children struggle today with their friendships and romantic partnerships, to their career pursuits and financial management.

Why is this happening? The thief (Satan) comes to kill, steal and destroy and he wants our children’s souls.

What do we do about this? We pray! The effectual, fervent prayer of a righteous person avails much. (James 5:16)

  • Dates: 2nd Sunday each month
  • Time: 9:30 – 10:30 AM
  • Location: Portable (beside the gym)
  • Facilitated by: Susan Andrews, Gary & Helen Nash

Cleansing Stream Course

Cleansing Stream provides practical application of Biblical truths and disciplines with supportive relationships. The course is built around 4 main teachings; Walking in the Spirit, Committing Everything to God, Speaking Words of Life and Entering the Cleansing Stream. Each of these areas focus on specific aspects of living in daily victory and walking in an exciting relationship with the Lord.

If anyone cleanses himself… He will be a vessel for honor, Sanctified and useful for the Master, prepared for every good work.

2 Timothy 2:21

A retreat and a follow up teaching will allow participants to take further steps in the right direction towards spiritual maturity.

Wondering what this all means? Cleansing Stream is kind of like God’s chisel … shaping and reforming you. Watch this video to get a better idea of what that’s all about.

What relevance does Jesus have for our lives today?

What is Alpha?

The Alpha course, one of Gateway’s Stepping Stones Courses, is an opportunity to explore the Christian faith in a relaxed setting, over thought-provoking weekly sessions. Dinner is provided at the beginning of each evening, which gives you an opportunity to not have to rush to get dinner done before the evening begins and helps you get to know each other!

Listen, learn, discuss and discover. And ask anything. Alpha is a place where no question is too simple or too hostile.

  • Schedule: Mondays @ 6:30 PM, March 5 – April 23 (excluding Easter Monday)
  • Location: Home group locations will be available.

Registration is available in the atrium after each weekend service on February 12, 19, 26 & March 4.

Wow, I am extremely excited about this March Ontario tour. This Laughopolis Comedy Combo Tour is going to be the best show in your town. Unless you live in Toronto, because let’s be honest, there are some pretty amazing shows in Toronto. Sure, I’d put our show up there with the best of them, but to assume that we are the best one…is a little arrogant. We will definitely be the cleanest, hilarious show in all of Ontario though, I will say that.

Leeland Klassen – Laughopolis

We are also really excited to have them come to Gateway! Tickets will be on sale after each weekend service and during office hours (Tuesday – Friday).
