Family Atmosphere

Families Are Welcome Here

We love families — and we want everyone to feel at home in this house!

All ages join together for the worship portion of our service, where kids and adults alike can celebrate and encounter God together.

During the message, nursery care (ages 1–3) and Sunday School (ages 3–11) are available, where children can learn about God in a fun and meaningful way.
 

Worship

At KGC, we love to worship God with passion and freedom. Our services are full of life, joy, and heartfelt expression — you might see people raising their hands, clapping, dancing, waving flags, kneeling, or lying before the Lord in worship.

You may also hear prayer in tongues or words of prophecy as people respond to the Holy Spirit’s leading.

We believe worship is for everyone — from the youngest to the oldest — and we encourage you to worship God freely and wholeheartedly.  

Preaching & Prayer

Who We Are

What We're About


King’s Gate Church is a house of God's Presence
for all nations and generations.

We are:
Christ Centered
Scripture Rooted
Spirit Empowered
Making Disciples


 At KGC, faith comes alive: healing the sick, restoring life, and overcoming darkness through prayer and the power of the Holy Spirit (Matt. 10:8).

Beliefs

We believe most assuredly:
  1. The Bible is the inspired Word of God and is the only true, earthly, full revelation of God’s truth that exists.
  1. That God has revealed Himself as “One God” existing and manifest in three distinct persons, Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.
  1. In the test and fall of man, his lost state as recorded in the Bible, and in his subsequent depravity and inability to attain righteousness before God outside of Jesus Christ.
  1. In the reality and personality of satan, who is a fallen cherub.  He was once the covering angel called Lucifer of the very throne of God.  Now he chooses to oppose God’s will and confuse God’s people.
  1. In the Lord Jesus Christ as the only Saviour of mankind, conceived of the Holy Spirit, born of the Virgin Mary. He is very God and very man.
  1. That Jesus died for our sins, was buried and rose again from the dead on the third day, which is the Gospel stated in the Bible.  He also after His resurrection appeared in person to His disciples.
  1. In Jesus Christ’s bodily ascension into heaven and He is now seated at the place of all authority at the right hand of the Father.  That this same Jesus will literally, bodily come again the second time with and for a victorious Church.
  1. That the salvation of man was provided through the Cross of Calvary and that through faith in Christ’s atoning work we can be saved.
  1. That through apostasy, unbelief, and neglect, a person can backslide and fall away from the living God.
  1. In Water Baptism by immersion at or subsequent to a sincere profession of faith in Jesus Christ, as Saviour and Lord.  This Baptism is a commandment not an option.
  1. In the Baptism of the Holy Spirit as taught clearly in the Bible.  It is an experience subsequent to salvation with scriptural evidences, such as speaking in tongues as the Spirit gives utterance.
  1. In the present-day operation of the supernatural Gifts of the Holy Spirit as was manifest in the early Church and taught about extensively by the Apostle Paul.  Further to this we believe in the healing power of God as manifest in both the Old and New Testaments, and that the release of God’s supernatural power, should naturally flow out of Christian believers living a Holy Spirit-filled life.
  1. In living a Spirit-filled life of obedience to God’s will, in thought, word, and deed. That is, true Christians will progressively become more Christ-like as they walk with God and grow up to full maturity in the Lord.  That spiritual growth and maturity comes directly from the indwelling presence of the Holy Spirit, worshiping God, prayer, studying and walking in obedience to the Word of God, and actively serving God as part of a local Church.
  1. In the necessity of celebrating the Lord’s Table (Communion) for all believers, as instituted and commanded by the Lord Jesus Christ, practiced by the early Church, and taught by the Apostle Paul.
  1. In the bodily Resurrection of the Dead and a Day of Judgement when all those who have been born-again through believing on the Lord Jesus Christ will have eternal life.  All those who have not been born-again and believed on the Lord Jesus Christ shall be seperated from God eternally by being cast into Hell.
  1. That the Church of Jesus Christ is the only true work of God in the earth through which He will reveal Himself and redeem mankind, and that the Church is the only vehicle through which He will accomplish His eternal purpose.  To this end we believe in the current work of God to Restore the Church back to spiritual power, and into God’s original purpose to become the Holy Spotless Bride of Christ manifesting the image, truth, power, and glory of God.  That the true Church represents God’s kingdom on earth, being the place of His rule and authority.
  1. That the work of the Church is to follow Christ, preach the Gospel, worship God, teach the word, make disciples, live the truth, demonstrate God’s power, and bring glory to His name.
  1. That the Church is divinely mandated in purpose, prophetic in vision, and apostolic in nature.  It will be built and structured by God upon the Biblical foundations and pattern which He has clearly given in the scriptures.  Therefore, we believe in the present-day working of the five-fold ministry gifts to the Church in the form of apostles, prophets, evangelists, pastors and teachers.
  1. That the true Church is made up of those who have been born-again through repentance and believing in the Lord Jesus Christ, who have been baptized in water, and filled with the Holy Spirit as Jesus demonstrated in His example, and commanded in His teaching.
  1. That the Church is the place where Christ is irrevocably proclaimed and seen to be the living head of the Church, and where the Father is worshiped in Spirit and Truth.  Where the presence of God is manifest in power, and the Holy Spirit is allowed to freely move as He wills.  Where the priesthood of all believers is taught and manifested in the life of the local Church and the individual believer.

Leadership

Danny and Erin Wilson lead together as Senior Pastors at King's Gate Church.  They are also anointed worship leaders and teachers of the Word of God.  Danny and Erin are passionate to see the Body of Christ brought into wholeness, health and spiritual maturity.  They are passionate about the Presence of God, the Word of God, intimacy with the Holy Spirit, and obedience to Christ. They want to see people set free, develop an authentic relationship with Jesus Christ, connect into healthy church family, and be transformed by the power and love of God.

History

King’s Gate Church was planted in Cochrane in the fall of 1980 by our founding pastors, Robert and Angela Butler. After immigrating from England in 1979, the Butlers felt a strong call to start a Spirit-filled work in the community. What began as a small gathering of five people in their home, known as New Life Christian Fellowship, soon grew. We moved to Manachaban School for Sunday services, and within a few years, purchased our first building—a warehouse on River Ave, which we transformed into a place of worship. In April 1994, our members began construction on the building we still call home today. By December 1994, the building was ready, and on January 15, 1995, we experienced a powerful outpouring of the Holy Spirit that ignited revival in our church.

Since then, countless lives have been transformed, and God’s presence continues to move powerfully among us. Every week, we experience His touch in worship, healing, and life-changing encounters. The river of the Spirit keeps flowing deeper, and our walk with God grows richer every day.
