Joylands For Your Child
All children are precious to God and to us! We value your child’s uniqueness and the love God has for them.
Joylands Children & Family Ministry helps your child experience God, as they are and where they are. We welcome special needs children and want to work with you to make their experience meaningful and safe.
We bring the Bible alive through songs, drama, hands-on activities and worship experiences that help your child grow to know God and his love for them.
Sunday Children’s Worship
While you attend Worship on the Main Level, your child experiences Children’s Worship on the Lower Level or can be cared for in the Main Level Nursery. For parents who prefer to keep their infant with them in worship, our Baby Break Room provides a video feed of the service.

Joylands For You
Being a parent is wonderful, but can sometimes be challenging! Instilling your values in your child is never easy.
We provide weekly fliers with fun ideas to help you reinforce God’s truth through at-home activities, supporting you in your primary role as the spiritual leader for your child.
Your growth and uniqueness is important to us, as well. The Source is our parent resource ministry, providing family events, preschool play group, father/child events, women and men’s small groups, Parents Night Out, retreats and more!
