Want a way for your children (babies through 5th grade) to experience the Bible in a creative and relevant way? 

Abundant Life Kids is where to start! Every Sunday, you can bring your children (babies through 5th grade) to join us as we discover and experience the Bible in a fun and interactive way, helping them learn and see how lives are changed by Jesus.

Journey Kids is now Abundant Life Kids and we can't wait to show you all the new things for you and your kids. Abundant Life Kids officially launches Sunday, March 19. 

We will have themed days for the kids to dress up (and serve team members too!) and have a little fun, a photo booth, merch and prizes. All while they learn about Jesus with new curriculum written by our own Abundant Life Kids team!

Here are just some of the things you will experience for both you and your child:

  • New ongoing communication with parents
  • New kid friendly curriculum
  • New Abundant Life Kids Worship and Drama
  • Community for kids
  • New Merch

Theme Days:

Sunday, March 19: Pajama Day! Come dressed in your pajamas for church

Sunday, March 26: Western Day. Bring out those cowboy boots and hats!

Sunday, April 2: Sports Day. Whether you root for the Chiefs, Royals, Jayhawks, Tigers or any other sports team. Wear your jersey's or team colors.

What Is Abundant Life Kids?

Abundant Life Kids is a safe place for your children to go every Sunday as you attend the worship and sermon service.  

It is a fun environment where your child will… 

  • Have fun
  • Make friends
  • Learn to follow Jesus

They will sing songs, do a Bible lesson, play games, and keep engaged through fun activities.  

We would love to have your child join us at Abundant Life Kids this Sunday.

Your First Visit

DSC03815

Come to the Guest Services in the kid's wing. We will meet your family, check your child into our database system, and one of our volunteers will lead your child to their age-appropriate room.

We will ask for the following personal information: 

  • Family members’ names
  • Children’s names and birthdates
  • Address & phone number
  • Any special instructions (allergies, special needs) for your child

How Check-In Works

Abundant Life Kids check in

After your first visit, your information is in our database and you may check in your children at any available iPad station located throughout the children’s lobby.

After finding your child’s name in the database, you and your child will be given matching identification stickers exclusive to your family and your visit. Your child will need to wear the name tag portion while you keep the matching tag (tip: you can put it on the back of their shirt if they want to pull it off).

After the service, you will return to your child’s room and show your tag and your child to be released back to you.

In the event that we need to contact you during the service, you will receive a text message. We ask that you exit the auditorium and look for a staff member or guest services volunteer who will direct you to your child’s room.

On the Ride Home

On your way home, ask your child questions such as, “Did you have fun?” and “What did you learn today?” It’s our goal that every child has a positive answer to these two questions every week and can share a little of what they learned!

Special Environments

Mom’s Nursing Room

A mom’s nursing room is available for moms with nursing babies. This is a “Moms Only” room for women with newborn babies to view the service in a more private and quiet environment.
