Pastor Andrea Lynn Gates (Pastor A) is the senior servant leader of The Purpose Church (TPC). The late Elder Anthony Gates Sr. and Pastor Andrea Gates officially planted The Purpose Church in May of 2018. They have seen God move miraculously in their ministry in such a short time. God has confirmed this planting with supernatural resources and a house rich in gifts and anointing. They are beyond honored with what God has done in such a minimal time and feel uniquely favored because of it.

 

Pastor A holds a BA from The University of Alabama at Birmingham (UAB) in Mass Communications, and a Master of Communications with a concentration in Organizational Leadership from The University of Alabama at Tuscaloosa. Pastor A is an author, preacher, teacher and DESTINY PUSHER.
