As a faith community, the journey welcomes and honors people of all

As beloved by God and of equal worth and dignity.

The Journey is...

Pursing Jesus

The Journey is a community of imperfect people gathered around the person and love of Jesus. We seek to love, worship, and serve God together.

Multi-Ethnic

We are an intentionally multi-ethnic community seeking to embody a beloved and diverse family of Jesus. We strive to create a multi-ethnic worship experience on Sunday mornings and celebrate all backgrounds.

Inclusive

As a community of faith, The Journey Church welcomes all people – people of all races, ethnicities, gender identities, sexual orientations, religious backgrounds, economic status, immigration status, occupations, mental or physical abilities, ages, or varying perspectives – as beloved by God and of equal worth and dignity.

City-Oriented & Justice-Driven

The Journey seeks to love our community and city through advocating for justice for all people, and mobilizing our community in the work against hate, evil, and discrimination in all forms present in our world today. In accordance with the life and teachings of Jesus Christ, we stand for love and compassion, peace and justice.

Sunday Morning Worship

From Sunday morning worship to table groups, we want you to know you belong at The Journey! No matter who you are or where you come from or whom you love; we are a community of people made in the image of God! We want you to experience the liberative spirit of Jesus and find deep belonging with a life-giving faith community.

Worship Service

At The Journey we have two services at 9 am & 11 am in person and live stream one or both services on Facebook and YouTube. 

You will be greeted by our parking attendant and a greeter at the door. We have coffee, tea and hot chocolate as you enter the lobby into the worship center. On a typical sunday we have a time of worship, announcements, a sermon and a final song. 

We run on Journey time, so if you are a few minutes late, don’t fret! We probably haven’t started yet.

We are looking forward to meeting you!

Journey Kids & Starters

We have a robust Kids & Starters Ministry at both services. Our certified, qualified team under the direction of our Director of Kids & Starters, Kyra Gonzalez, has great themes and lessons each month to engage kids at every level. Our Kids room is for ages K-5 and our starters room is for infants to Pre-K. Someone will be at the kids wing to help you check in and get your kid settled in. Check in starts at 8:45 am and 10:45 am every sunday. 

If you have a little one but would like to keep them during the service we welcome all kids and babies in our worship center as well. Our gathering place is a great place to watch our YouTube live stream as a secondary option for families who might need more room to run around. 

Attend 3, Serve 1

We value that our church attendees to come and worship as they can and are able. 

We also value raising up new leaders in our church to support and lead our Sunday morning worship experience! We encourage those who have been with us to consider serving on one of our many sunday morning teams.  

There is something for everyone’s gifting and abilities.
