She came to Gateway for a package of diapers, but there was much more in store for our new

friend. She was due in a few months and was beginning to feel the responsibility of caring for her new son to be born. It became obvious from our first interaction that she had deep needs. She was longing for a place to share her struggle and felt no purpose. Her greatest moment at Gateway was when she full understood her need for a personal relationship with Jesus and chose to accept Him as her Savior. Soon after her new journey with Christ began, Baby Yezon was born on July 7 beginning his new life as well. She now meets regularly with a friend of Gateway who attends a local church. The same church is planning a baby shower that will include additional baby items for our friend in need. By Gods grace, she received much more than a package of diapers at Gateway.

Mitch Koury, Gateways counselor of boyfriends and husbands, had the privilege of ministering to this young man. Mitch encouraged Justin to consider marrying his girlfriend (the mother of his child). Justin is a believer. Mitch is helping him in his walk with the Lord. Justin married in June and Mitch was invited. (Titus 2:6: Likewise, urge the younger men page 7
