Helping everyday kids learn to become Jesus Followers! 

Our goal is to provide an excellent experience for Kids through fun activities, engaging biblical teaching and developing friendships. Helping kids feel welcomed, cared for and connected to, in this environment is pivotal for engaging families. Through our actions and engagement with kids, we can help everyday people learn how to become Jesus followers.
