vision
The Gathering of the Saints International Fellowship is to equip, educate, and empower the saints of God for the work of ministry, for building up of the Body of Christ. To facilitate and nurture meaningful relationships with all levels of leaders, inspiring and enabling them to be more effective in their callings, for the purpose of building and multiplying strong local churches around the world.
mission
The mission of Gathering Of The Saints Int'l Fellowship is to preserve the integrity of the gospel of Jesus Christ; to instruct in the knowledge of God, and to promote membership and fellowship with other like-minded believers.
membership
Membership is an important part of GOTSI as it enables those serving the GOTSI members to know who each member is and how to serve the members and their leadership teams. Membership is entered through a defined process that includes an application and interview.
annual conferences
GOSTI sponsors annual conferences for the purpose of developing and deepening a broad base of relationships, inspire vision and bring refreshing to all levels of leaders. This conference is always a highlight of the year and a great time of refreshing and renewal. GOSTI hosts conferences of this nature both in the United States and internationally.
APOSTOLIC LEADERSHIP TEAM
The Gathering of the Saints International Fellowship is directed by an Apostolic Leadership Team (Board Of Bishops) which is made up of the Officers of the Fellowship, the Regional Director (Bishop) and other proven, mature ministries.
GOSTI AFFILIATES
GOSTI’s vision is to reach out internationally as well as nationally and connect relationally with those who share the vision of nurturing leaders and developing strong local churches, and who also share our biblical core beliefs. This occurs through GOSTI affiliates, emerging affiliates, and related networks that already exist in different nations. At the time of this writing, GOSTI has affiliates in Liberia, West Africa.

​
regional leadership
There is a regional director (Bishop) and a regional leadership team for each region. The purpose of team ministry in the region is to ensure that each region has a strategy to impact the region and that member ministers have someone they can readily relate to as a resource.
regional conferences
GOSTI sponsors smaller regional conferences in several geographical places for the purpose of relating to leaders in that region, and practical discussion on relevant issues facing the leaders and churches. These regional gatherings are the heartbeat of GOSTI and provide for a genuine opportunity for relationships to deepen.
INTERNATIONAL STRATEGY TEAM
The International Strategy Team, led by the International Director (Bishop), is a vital key to the development of GOSTI worldwide. This team makes recommendations to the Apostolic Leadership Team concerning international development. In every nation there are pastors and leaders who are walking alone and need the things that a fellowship like GOSTI has to offer. The International Strategy Team helps the fellowship to connect with these national pastors and church leaders.
