Hi, I'm Joseph Bower - the Schools and Youth Worker for Gateway. I'm orginally from the other place (Lancashire), but my family roots are Barnsley!
In 2020 I completed studying Theology and Performing Arts at an Elim Bible College. Five years ago, I performed at the Lamproom Theatre in Barnsley, as James Hudson Taylor. That was a great experience. This also led to me visiting China with Mark Reasbeck, for the opening of the JHT centre.
Little did I know, that would develop into an opportunity for me to serve in Barnsley as Gateway's School and Youth Worker.
I really look forward to develop connections between churches and schools in Barnsley. I also hope to share more of the Christian faith with young people.
I look forward to meeting you. If you wish to support me in anyway, here's my contact details: joseph.genagateway@gmail.com
PS Below at very bottom of page is info on how to support the work financially. Please pray for the work.
