Foundation

The most important thing we do in CJ Kids is share the gospel. We want Babies – Elementary kids to learn who God is through His word, know Jesus is their personal savior and own their faith in all circumstances. Our heart is for kids to build a foundation of faith that lasts.

Fun

You say chaos – we say fun! Big games, loud worship, and creative Bible teaching are some of the ways we bring the fun in CJ Kids. Not to mention the awesome volunteers who make church a place where kids want to come back every week. 

Connection

We love your family and want to equip you to raise kids who love Jesus and change the world. Everything we do is meant to resource you to become the spiritual leader God intends you to be for your child. Parenting is an important job. You want to get it right, and we want to help!

The most important thing we do in CJ Kids is share the gospel.  We want babies, preschoolers, and elementary kids to learn who God is through his word, know Jesus is their personal savior and own their faith in all circumstances.  Our heart is for kids to build a foundation of faith that lasts.

Every Sunday in CJ Kids is an adventure filled with big games, high-energy worship, and engaging Bible teachings that make learning about Jesus exciting and fun. Kids connect with awesome leaders and new friends, building relationships that help them feel known, loved, and encouraged to grow in their faith. It’s a place where fun meets purpose—and where kids can’t wait to come back week after week!

On your first visit, head to the CJ Kids check-in area. If you have trouble finding it, one of our staff or leaders will be happy to assist you!

You’ll be greeted by a friendly CJ Kids leader who’s excited to meet your family and walk you through how CJ Kids works. To check your child in, we’ll collect some basic information, including a parent or guardian’s name, your child’s name and birthday, your address, phone number, and any special instructions. Once checked in, you’ll receive matching identification stickers—your child will wear a name tag, and you’ll keep the matching tag. After the service, simply show your tag to the CJ Kids leader to pick up your child.

If you lose your matching tag, you’ll be asked to show your driver’s license to a staff leader, who will verify your identity with your child’s profile and reprint your tag. We take safety seriously, even if it requires a little extra time. In the event that we need to contact you during the service, we will either send you a text message or call the number you registered your family with at the check-in station.

In addition to our secure check-in system, we have a thorough screening process to ensure safe and reliable care. All staff and volunteer leaders who serve with children undergo third-party background checks and are required to complete ongoing safety training.

When we say, “CJ Kids has a place for every child to explore the love of Jesus” we mean it. We’re committed to creating an environment where every child can thrive! We offer accommodations to support kids with physical disabilities, and we celebrate the unique strengths and differences within every child. We recognize that neurodiversity isn’t a deficit—it’s part of what makes each child wonderfully unique. Some kids with neurodivergent characteristics may need a little extra support in certain settings and our team partners with parents and leaders to create the least restrictive environment possible. Our goal is to help every child fully participate in the CJ Kids experience. When needed, we also provide specially trained leaders to serve as buddies, offering one-on-one support to kids who benefit from it.
