Job Description: The assistant would work alongside our Executive Director. This gospel passionate man would also speak regularly in local churches in central New Jersey.

Although the Assistant Executive Director (AED) has the numerous responsibilities of a para-church pregnancy ministry, the unique focus is on church relations, securing Biblically literate peer counselors and training the staff in evangelism.

Candidate responsibilities: Strong calling to Biblical ministry. Gifted in preaching and teaching. Administration gift is also needed. The Assistant Executive Director (AED) would transition to becoming the Executive Director within one-year. He would direct the ministry, preach, teach and train volunteer and paid staff and represent this four-decade old gospel ministry to the community.

Candidate giftedness:: Strong preaching and evangelism calling. The key is the calling to 'take the baton' to the next generation.

Ministry background: Gateway Pregnancy Center is a 39-year old crisis pregnancy ministry whose primary goal is to share the gospel with men and women in a pregnancy crisis. All services are free. Our mission field is primarily in the Hispanic communities surrounding Elizabeth, NJ as well as the African-American, Haitian and Caribbean communities in and near Newark, NJ.

The ministry maintains strong church relationships and an active social media presence.

The gospel is our focus and the vehicle is the crisis pregnancy ministry.

Gateway believes our mission is prophetic (using the Scripture as final authority) and evangelistic (seeking the salvation of souls). Our counseling is directive and intentional. We are also assisting the work of the first gospel-focused pregnancy center in the UK.

Gateway has seen over 39,000 women and thousands of men in the past thirty-eight years.  A key component of our peer counseling is spiritual follow up. The Assistant Executive Director {AED}would continue Gateway’s focus on sharing the biblical view of the sanctity of human life to the women served (coming from 47 different nations) as well as to the churches (some dozen or more) who support the ministry.

·    Correction: At the funeral for Lorena I said, “The Bible tells me that there is no marriage in heaven, but I see no prohibition with having best friends. Lorena was my best friend here, so I’m looking forward to that.“Allow me to correct that a little

          I love one of John Pipers quote. Just substitute 'Lorena' for the word 'he' and you how encouraging his words are to me: He had become so embedded in your life that for him to be absent is, yes, for part of  you yourself to be absent. That’s true. Things will never be just the same again. And it would dishonor him to think that they should be. But consider this: not all that you became by union with him is lost. You know it’s not. You became a wiser, deeper, better person because of life with him. He did not take all of that with him when he left. You know he didn’t. You know who you are. And what you became through him is not less, but more than you were before he entered your life. God has not made you less, but more. Things will never be the same. That’s true. But God’s call on your life now is to be the person you became through love with your husband, for the glory of God.
