Hi! Welcome to the Gatehouse Church. We're here to serve and support our local community in Blackpool south.

At the Gatehouse Church, we aim to be a church that enables people of all different ages to experience the love of Jesus in different ways. In children’s work, lively refreshing services, in thriving youth ministries and Connect fellowship group.

We invite you to join us for our weekly worship services, where we come together to celebrate the love and grace of God through inspiring music, meaningful messages, testimonies and genuine fellowship.

But our mission doesn't stop within these walls. We're actively involved in serving our community through outreach initiatives like
  • Open Doors coffee mornings
  • Youth community outreach  
  • Toddler’s group
  • Prayer group
  • Food provision & food bags
  • Youth festival events
  • Family/community fun days
  • Church in the café
  • Creative writing courses.
We'd love for you to be a part of what's happening at the Gatehouse Church. Whether it's joining us for a Sunday service, watching our livestream, volunteering, participating in a Bible study, attending a men’s breakfast or simply stopping by to say hello at our Tuesday coffee morning at the Community Centre next to the church, there's a place for you here!

To learn more about us and how you can get involved, visit this website or give us a call. We can't wait to welcome you and get to know you!

Planning your Visit

A Warm Hello 

The following information is specifically for those planning a visit, so that you know, beforehand, what to expect on a Sunday morning.

Where and when

We meet at the Church Building (details here) for our Sunday Service starting at 10:30am. For your first visit, we recommend arriving 10-15 minutes early to ensure you get a parking space and find somewhere to sit before the service begins. When you arrive, you should be greeted by someone on our Welcome Team.

Accessibility: There is wheelchair access for anyone who needs it. Please let one of the Welcome Team know on your arrival and they will help you to get set up. There are disabled toilets in the main foyer.

Our Sunday service

The main service begins at 10.30am with a warm welcome from one of our team members. Then follows a time of sung worship, led by our worship team. We typically have two songs followed by a children's slot. The Limitless Kids and Limitless Youth will then normally go off to their respective groups. If you have children you will be able to spot and speak to one of the leaders - they will be wearing a bright yellow t-shirt! There will usually be a time of prayer and communion. We normally have another time of sung worship followed by a sermon that is bible based and that we can apply to our everyday life. We then finish with a final worship song. Sometimes there is an opportunity to receive prayer at the end of the service. 

When our serving team is available we serve tea, coffee and biscuits from 12pm, after the service. It is a great way to meet people, or simply take time to find your bearings. All refreshments are free.

What about my kids?

We have a great programme lined up for kids/teens:

  • Creche - from approx. 6 months to 5 years (decided on a child by child basis)
  • Limitless Kids (4/5 - 11/12 years)
  • Limitless Youth (school years 7-11)

Children stay with their parent or grown-up at the start of the service for two worship songs and the “Kids slot” and then go to creche or Limitless Kids.  The Limitless Youth group may go out at the same time as the children but sometimes stay in the service to take communion before going to their class.  Children can be picked up by parents after the service ends (but not before 12pm).

The Limitless Kids group activities vary depending on the age but usually there is a friendly welcome, bible stories, testimonies, praying, music, craft, drama, fun games and free play. Please pick your children up as soon as the service finishes.
