Steve has been serving at Gate City since 1995. Steve and his wife, Pattie, are the parents of three daughters, Hannah, Leah and Micah. After seven years of ministry with our Students and Children, Steve assumed the position of Associate Pastor in early 2003. His primary responsibilities include Assimilation and Mobilization, or as Steve affectionately says, “Minister of Coming & Going!” With a passion for the world, he believes people can experience connection to the body of Christ as they serve Him through both ministry and mission. Both Steve and Pattie are graduates of Appalachian State University, from which Steve also received his Master’s degree. The Turner’s are also die-hard Andy Griffith Show/Mayberry fans!
