At Gateway Mission, we believe God has called us to serve as a gateway to a whole new life for hurting people across West Michigan.
We see the pain of our neighbors who are struggling with hunger, homelessness, poverty, addiction and other challenges.
And with love and respect, we offer these men and women – and their families – help discovering God’s plan for them and a more hopeful future. Learn more about our mission to be a gateway to help for our community.
I felt lost… I didn’t know where I belonged until I finally found my home here at Gateway. They prepare you mentally and emotionally, and teach you daily life. I’m still healing, but God’s going to get me through. I have been blessed tremendously by so much love!”
