The mission of Gospel Tabernacle United Holy Church, Fremont is to exalt Jesus Christ, equip believers for ministry by empowering them with the Word of God to the world as Jesus Christ commissioned in Matthew 28:19 - 20 (NKJV)
"19 Go therefore, and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and the Son and of the Holy Spirit,
20 Teaching them to observe all things that I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with you always, even unto the end of the world. Amen."
It is further our mission to provide educational, social and developmental forums to specifically enhance the spiritual growth and maturity of our children, teens, and youth adults.
