We gather informally on Sunday afternoons from 2:00 to 4:00 PM.  After greeting one another we are generally seated in a large circle around the meeting room.  Worship by musicians and singers may include some spontaneous or prophetic songs and is interpersed wtih Scripture, prophesy, prayer, intercession or inspirational short messages.  There may be clapping, dancing, banners or other enthusiastic espressions of praise and worship as found in the Psalms and other Scriptures.  Different people may participate throughout the gathering as 1 Cor. 14:26 instructs and Holy Spirit leads.  Teaching the Word may be included at anytime during the meeting. We celebrate the Lord's Table or Communion and there is almost always some form of corporate or personal ministry.  We want you to be free to join in or simply enjoy His presence and the atmosphere of worship.  Worship, the Word and Works of Jesus are all anticipated when we gather as The Gate.

Children are welcome but parents are encouraged to bring quiet toys or materials.  There is only one room at the Embassy of Hope where The Gate meets so the children will be immersed in the worship, Word and the presence of the Lord with everyone else.
