The worship music can bring you to tears! Pastor Al, years ago, is such a nice gentleman. He's welcoming and personable. The children's ministry team makes you feel safe enough to leave your children with them because they are so warm and welcoming. We definitely made some life long friends while attending Gateway years ago. Whenever we're in the area, we always try to visit and we always feel right at home. This was not our first time here and won't be our last.

So grateful to be a part of a genuine faith family that loves God and loves others. If you have been hurt by church experiences in the past, turned off by Christians who haven't been what God called them to be, or long for authentic transparency in walking through life with it's hurts, habits and hang-ups free from judgment and criticism, come worship with us! There is hope for the hurting, healing for the broken, and life giving relationships within the people that call Gateway Community Church home!

My favorite place is the adoration chapel. It is so serene and cozy, you can really feel Jesus as you look at the blessed sacrament exposed. This church is so special to me as I used to be a part of their choir. I also like the courtyard where they have a few saint statues displayed. It was nice to see St. Therese and St. Anthony along with a rare statue I haven't seen anywhere else St. Anne and her daughter Mary (I have this prayer card but have never seen a statue of it in real life!). I didn't quite notice them here until I came the other day to pray. If you are in Merced, whether you are Catholic or not, come by and see this church and walk around their courtyard. It's a great place to take a break from our busy schedules. :-)

What matters is that the community of the regular church goers are friendly, you may even say amiable. The priest has expert knowledge of the (Catholic) Bible, as all Catholic priests should be, and he knows how to engage the audience. My only criticism would be that the priest does but agree to putting a mic for Quinceañeras because he believes he has a loud voice. That is true but the quality of sound from a close up mic is much better as the camera mic also picks up the echo from within the church. I don't visit this church too often so I can't add much more other than sometimes there are special festivities and raffles.
