Missions

Missions Team
Gateway partners with 17+ missions groups/missionaries and invests over $125,000 in mission initiatives. We are building a team of high-level leaders to coordinate and promote Gateway’s missional initiatives and impact. If you'd like to learn more about serving with the Missions Team, email missions@gccstl.org.
Operation Storehouse
Operation Storehouse is modeled after Joseph’s Storehouse (Genesis 41) and the Early Church’s Feeding Initiative (Acts 6) to receive a food surplus and redistribute it to those in need. 

We offer a distribution storehouse utilizing 3 levels of volunteerism:

Shoppers: We invite volunteers to pick up extra staple groceries for Operation Storehouse. After the groceries are purchased, they can be brought to Gateway at a scheduled time and left for the next level of volunteers to stock.

Stockers: The stockers will organize the staple goods into designated shelves. The stockers may pack bags of groceries that will be dropped off by the next group of volunteers.

Droppers: These are individuals willing to drive to Gateway at a scheduled time, bag or pick-up pre-packed groceries in the Storehouse and deliver them to a doorstep — think DoorDash for Jesus.

Interested in serving with Operation Storehouse? Just signup here to grab a spot!
