Jesus became wiser and stronger. He also became more and more pleasing to God and to people.
Luke 2:52
What to Expect
If it's your first time visiting our Sunday experience, we will ask for some personal information to register your child in our security check-in system. Your kids safety is our number one priority! That's why we require all Avenue Kids volunteers to pass a background check and utilize a security tag check-in system. Planning to visit for the first time? Save some time and pre-register! We are excited to meet you, so be sure to stop by one of our family check-in desks and let us know you've pre-registered.
