I tell you, open your eyes and look at the fields! They are ripe for harvest. John 4:35
God has blessed theGathering with numerical and spiritual growth. We believe that God is calling us to extend theGathering in order to grow His kingdom in the Charlotte area. We are convinced that Fort Mill is fertile soil prepared by God for the first church planting mission of theGathering and that now is the time to establish a new community of Christ-followers called theGathering fort mill.
theGathering fort mill will share the mission, vision, and values that are the foundation of theGathering, rooted in and growing out of the Great Commandment and the Great Commission. The launch team will be led by the pastoral team of Derrick Bucy and Scott Morrison.
