Gateway Church
Sunday Service June 21, 2026
When you have a design, it means there is a designer. When you have both, it means there is a purpose. Fathers are a part of God's good purpose for humanity. If we want to experience a higher level of well-being in our families, communities, and nation, we need to embrace God's good design. We were made for it! Worship Sundays at 10 AM at 701 Formosa Avenue in Winter Park, FL or on livestream at www.entertolive.org/gateway-live Life Groups follow the service.

ERASING MOTHER AND FATHER
NEW YORK LAW
On June 2, 2026, the New York state legislature passed a bill that would replace "mother" and "father" with "gestating parent" and "non-gestating parent" in state family and domestic laws.
MOTHER = GESTATING PARENT
FATHER = NON-GESTATING PARENT
If a baby is born through a surrogate, even though thesurrogate is actually the person gestating the child, the legal mother will still be called the “gestating parent.”

SURROGACY (Gemini AI)
Q. Who is the "Gestating Parent"?
A. "This is where the distinction between biology and New York law becomes critical. Under New York’s legal framework: The Intended Mother (if applicable): If one of the two individuals intending to raise the child is a woman, New York's family court documents will label her as the 'gestating parent' purely as a administrative replacement for the word ‘mother.’” This applies even though she did not provide the egg and did not carry the pregnancy.”
