What can I expect on my first visit to Journey Kids?
When you arrive, you can let someone at the Guest Tent know that you are a first time visitor and that you have kids who would like to participate in Journey Kids. They will direct you to the main lobby where you will find a stairway that leads to the downstairs, Journey Kids’ lobby and check-in area.
Once you are downstairs, you will see a New Family welcome sign with a table underneath. There, a Journey Kids staff member or volunteer will walk you through the enrollment process so your kids can attend a Journey Kids classroom on their first day.
After your essential information has been received, we will give you and your child coordinating security stickers and a gift. We’ll do our best to answer any questions you have and walk you and your child to their age-appropriate classroom. We will make every effort to ensure your child is introduced to a classroom volunteer and feels comfortable in their new environment.
At this point, you can go back upstairs to enjoy the worship service!
Please be sure to leave your phone on vibrate as we will text you if your child needs you while they are in the classroom.
After the service is done, you will use your security sticker to pick up your child from their classroom. The next time you visit, you can bypass the New Family table and go straight to one of our downstairs greeters to get your child checked-in at a station with an iPad.
Nursery and Toddlers- Birth-24 months
Our goal is to provide a safe and nurturing environment where the youngest of our Journey family can experience the love of Jesus. We offer an infant nursery and a Walkers Classroom for toddlers who are 12-24 months in age. Each room has developmentally appropriate toys and books and is staffed with trained and loving volunteers.


Preschool, Pre-K, and Kindergarten
We strive to make sure these little ones grasp the understanding that God made them, God loves them, and Jesus wants to be their friend forever! Each week, our caring volunteers lead children through a video Bible story, singing, and an interactive follow-up craft or activity. Also, each child will receive a take-home paper to review with their parents. These provide parents with prompts and ideas to reinforce the weekly lesson. We have classes for 2 year olds, 3 year olds, as well as a combined class for Pre-K and Kindergarten age kids.
First through Sixth Grade
We believe that learning about the Bible should never be boring, Sunday classes need to be FUN, and good leaders always have time to listen and care. We use Orange 252 Kids, a web based children's ministry curriculum designed for Elementary-age kids.The Orange strategy combines resources for both church and home to give kids a faith base that will last forever.
Each week our students learn an exciting new Bible lesson which is reviewed through an interactive, volunteer-led, small group time. All students will receive take-home devotionals to reinforce the weekly lesson and discover how it applies to their day-to-day lives.
Orange 252 Kids is designed to help every student trust in Jesus in a way that transforms how they love God, themselves, and the world around them. We want them to grow up knowing they can confidently, “make the right choice, trust God no matter what, and treat others the way that they want to be treated.

Journey Kids Volunteer Opportunities

Thank you for your interest in helping kids grow in their faith! In Journey Kids we strive to create a safe and fun place for kids to learn about the life-changing love of Jesus!
Our goal is to equip our volunteers to have successful and rewarding experiences by ensuring that each one finds their “just right” serving spot.
We’ll do our best to make sure each volunteer receives the training and support they need. Every volunteer who is 18 and above is required to pass a background check.
