September 21, 1997 The Lord launched yet another local church adding to his Kingdom. We met with 83 believers in a fire hall in Downingtown, PA. Today, the church is strong. After our 2 services we all packed up our cars, and drove over to our 34 acres of land, and had a ‘steel signing’ party. The walls are up, the roof is on, the floors are poured. 3 more months and we are moving in! To YOU be the GLORY, Lord Jesus! You have and are building your church. So glad to be a part of it!
Gateway Church Celebrates 11th Year of Public Worship
About the Author: Dan O'Deens
I am a visionary architect who is passionate about seeing dreams realized and implemented so that together we can better our world physically and spiritually. I get excited about leadership development and seeing the church multiplied as people embrace their creative side and breathe life and hope into their world. There is nothing that motivates me more than serving the young, the lost, the poor and the elderly.
I have been serving the Lord full-time for over 35 years. I consider myself a ‘life coach.’ For many years I was on the playing pitch. My role today is to train and invest in the next wave of ‘players’ who are serious about winning. My team runs to ‘win’…to win the prize of knowing that we embraced the high calling of God. To serve him with all that we have and give him all the glory.
I have been privileged to serve God as a youth pastor, school administrator, church planter, lead pastor, mission director, business owner, crisis and catastrophe director and college professor. That God chooses to use me to direct our amazing team blows me away. I love my job!
