With God's help, we are contending for the authentic New Testament Church—
A people who live surrendered to Jesus, share life through covenant with Him, and fulfill His assignments together.
We do not join East Gate simply by attending services or signing membership papers.
We are formed here through a living process—through interaction with four key tables where Christ is at the center.
Each table shapes how we belong, how we grow, and how we worship.
Here’s how it works:
The Table of Communion – Connection to Christ
Everything at East Gate begins here.
The Table of Communion is where you connect directly with Jesus through personal surrender.
It’s not about your gifting, your skills, or your past.
It’s about receiving His life fully through the New Covenant He established.
“Take and eat; this is my body, given for you.” —Luke 22:19 TPT
Your connection to East Gate starts with your connection to Christ.
When you sit at this table, you begin a life where everything—growth, service, community—flows from personal worship and surrender.
The Table of Fellowship – Sharing Life Through Christ
From Communion, we move naturally into Fellowship.
The Table of Fellowship is where you live out the New Covenant with others who are also connected to Jesus.
We are not asking people to form human contracts with one another.
We are sharing together in His covenant, which binds us as one spiritual body.
“They were all united as one, sharing everything in common.” —Acts 2:44 TPT
At East Gate, we honor, serve, and love one another because we are joined first to Him.
Fellowship here looks like showing up, walking together, and being known—not striving to belong, but living from belonging.
The Table of Trust – Growing in Safe Accountability
True fellowship leads us into trust.
At the Table of Trust, we grow through relational accountability and encouragement.
Trust is not forced.
It is cultivated through consistency, honesty, and shared submission to Christ.
“Confess and acknowledge your faults to one another and pray for one another so that you may be healed.”—James 5:16 TPT
At East Gate, we don’t pursue forced loyalty or relational contracts.
We simply commit to walk in truth and love, helping one another grow as we stay anchored in Christ.
Here, relational trust protects the purity of community and prepares us for deeper assignments together.
The Table of Leadership – Stewarding Your Assignment
Out of trust, leadership naturally forms.
The Table of Leadership is not about titles or climbing ladders.
It’s about recognizing and stewarding the grace Christ has given you to serve His body.
“If your gift is leadership, be passionate about your leadership.” —Romans 12:8 TPT
At East Gate, leadership means serving well, whether you are governing spiritually, setting up chairs, discipling others, or administrating logistics.
Every grace is valuable. Every function is worship.
Responsibility and authority may differ—but faithfulness is what matters most.
How You Connect at East Gate
If you are wondering how to take your place within East Gate, the pathway is simple:
- Start by connecting to Christ personally at the Table of Communion.
- Begin to live relationally by sharing life at the Table of Fellowship.
- Allow yourself to grow and mature at the Table of Trust.
- In time, embrace stewardship at the Table of Leadership according to your assignment.
There are no shortcuts.
There are no performance tracks.
There are only tables—and every table leads deeper into worship, relationship, and Kingdom mission.
Christ remains the center.
Covenant with Him holds us together.
Worship fuels everything we do.
At East Gate, you are not just invited to attend—you are invited to belong, become, and build.
And it all begins at the table where Jesus is waiting.
