We exist to lead kids on a journey of transformation in Jesus. 

We believe that each and every child is unique, deeply loved by God, and designed on purpose. We love helping kids discover the love of God and who they are created to be in Him.

AGE-SPECIFIC EXPERIENCES

Nursery
(Birth – 18 months)

(Located off the main lobby)
Our Nursery provides a safe, nurturing environment where your little ones are cared for and loved. Dedicated volunteers create a peaceful space for babies to begin experiencing God’s love through gentle care and attention.

Juniors
(Toddlers – Kindergarten)

Toddlers: 18 months – 2 years
Preschool: 3s, 4s, and 5s – Kindergarten

Our Juniors environment is full of fun, movement, and discovery! Each week, children learn that God loves them, God made them, and Jesus wants to be their friend forever. Through play, stories, songs, and hands-on activities, kids begin to build a foundation of faith that lasts.

Elementary
(1st – 5th Grade)

In our Elementary environments, kids dive deeper into God’s Word and explore what it means to follow Jesus every day. They’ll experience exciting Bible teaching, energetic worship, and meaningful small group time where they can talk about what they’ve learned and how to apply it to their lives.
Our goal is to help every child know the depth of Jesus’ love for them and to follow Him with their whole heart!

Where Do My Kids Go?

Journey Kids Church is much more than just “childcare.” We intentionally design our children’s ministry to help kids learn the Bible and discover how it connects to Jesus in ways they can understand. Each lesson is engaging, interactive, and taught by dedicated volunteers and staff who love Jesus and serve Him by serving you and your family.

New to Journey Kids?

When you arrive, our Kids Check-In Team will be ready to welcome you! At our New Family Check-In station, a team member will help register your family and print your child’s name tag and your parent security tag. Then, we’ll personally escort you to your child’s classroom and introduce you to their teacher.

Your Child’s Safety Matters

Security is a top priority at Journey Kids. During check-in, each child receives a name tag that matches a parent security tag. At pick-up time, our team will verify both tags to ensure every child is released to the correct adult.

In addition, all Journey Kids staff and volunteers have completed background checks and training so your children can learn and grow in a safe, caring environment.
