Associate Pastor Josh Hanson

Hello,

   My family and I are thrilled to be coming to Gateway.  My wife, Emily, and I have been married for 15 years and we have four children.  As we have learned Gateway’s story, we’ve been impressed by how God has blessed your ministry and are excited about what He will do in and through our ministry together as we “connect people to Jesus Christ and to one another.”  We look forward to serving with all of you in the near future. 

God bless,
Josh Hanson
