Gateway Women’s Care is a vibrant, $1.5 million pregnancy resource ministry/organization serving women in the greater Raleigh Triangle area in North Carolina for 40 years. Over the last fourteen years, Gateway Women’s Care has focused primarily on reaching, serving and equipping the abortion-determined woman and has locations in Raleigh, Durham, and Chapel Hill.
The life-transforming mission of Gateway Women’s Care is to empower women to choose LIFE for themselves and their unborn babies.
The President is the key management role of Gateway Women's Care and is responsible for the overall health, well-being, and success of the ministry. The President will be responsible for the implementation of the Board-approved mission and strategic plan; setting the ministry budget, overseeing it, and developing financial resources to meet that budget. Developing transformational relationships with major donors and securing new donor relationships is a priority for this position, as is ongoing vision casting. While the President is clearly seen as the ministry leader, he/she works in close partnership with the Executive Director in these processes, and together they share the messaging in donor communications and public opportunities.

STATEMENT OF FAITH
We believe the Bible to be the inspired, the only infallible, authoritative Word of God.
We believe that there is one God, eternally existent in three persons: Father, Son and Holy Spirit.
We believe in the deity of our Lord Jesus Christ, in His virgin birth, in His sinless life, in His miracles, in His vicarious and atoning death through His shed blood, in His bodily resurrection, in His ascension to the right hand of the Father, and in His personal return in power and glory.
We believe that for the salvation of lost and sinful man, regeneration by the Holy Spirit is absolutely essential, and that this salvation is received through faith in Jesus Christ as Savior and Lord and not as a result of good works.
We believe in the present ministry of the Holy Spirit by whose indwelling the Christian is enabled to live a godly life and to perform good works.
We believe in the resurrection of both the saved and the lost; they that are saved unto the resurrection of life and they that are lost unto the resurrection of damnation.
We believe in the spiritual unity of believers in our Lord Jesus Christ.
