We want to let you know that the Waterhouse family will be relocating back to Tauranga in the early part of 2026.

This decision has come after six months 
of prayer, discernment, and conversation with the Lead Team.

Luke and Jessie have sensed God’s leading in this move, particularly as their children enter key schooling years. What began 
as practical considerations around education has grown into a clear conviction that this is the right time for their family 
to be together in one city.

We will be taking the opportunity closer 
to the time to formally recognise their contribution to Gateway but we’re deeply grateful for the way they have served, grown, and journeyed with our community.

While we’ll miss their presence, we also trust that God is at work in this transition and look forward to seeing what unfolds.

We’re working on plans to ensure our Young Adults community is well supported, and we’ll keep you updated along the way.
