We are Connected for Community
We were never intended to do life all alone, but rather in the love and company of God and each other.

Sunday School: 9:30am-10:30am | 11:00 Preschool & Children’s Worship
JCBC Kids, the Preschool and Children’s ministries of Johns Creek Baptist, exists to help give kids a place to grow in an authentic faith, and to partner alongside families to help them grow at home.
We believe that what happens at church really matters, but that faith starts at home. Every week we offer incredible, engaging, and safe environments for kids birth through 5th grade, while equipping and encouraging parents to integrate spiritual growth at the dinner table, in carpool line, at soccer games, and bedtime.
Keeping a healthy environment for your child is important to us. Check out our Well Child Policy and COVID-19 Screening Checklist.

The Preschool ministry area focuses on the foundational and formative years from birth through Pre-K. We believe that it’s never to early in a child’s life to set a foundation in their understanding of who God is. Our desire is to help parents guide preschoolers into a growing knowledge of Jesus Christ. We provide a loving and safe environment where guided center-based activity programs allow freedom of exploration and discovery.
With caring and loving volunteers, we will lead our preschoolers in activities, crafts, monthly Bible verses, Bible stories, and music. We believe that the ministry that we have created for preschoolers will give them their first look of a Creator and Savior who loves them, made them, and wants to be their friend forever.
The Elementary Ministry of Johns Creek Baptist Church exists to help children develop spiritually, mentally, emotionally and socially into all that God created them to be. In this environment we create space for kids to learn what it means to truly follow Christ and be a disciple. We value kids growing and learning to understand what it means to have an authentic faith in Jesus, while living out their faith every day! We believe that everyone can change the world and spread the Gospel as Christ changes them from inside out no matter their age!
We fulfill this ministry by building relationships with the children and their families and offering sound biblical teaching in every aspect of our programming. Sunday School and Children’s Worship are offered on a weekly basis. Camps, Retreats, Vacation Bible School, special events and classes round out the many fun and interactive opportunities we offer your child.
We encourage kids and families of all ages to be part of both Sunday School (9:30) and Worship (11:00). Sunday School provides a small group environment for kids to build relationships with God and others led by faithful men and women who are gifted and passionate teachers of the Gospel. Our Children’s Worship time is for Kindergarten – 2nd grade. This time builds on what they learn in Sunday School as well as teaching Bible skills and what worship really means. 3rd – 5th graders are picked up after Sunday School to attend Worship with their parents or guardians. At JCBC we believe worshiping as a family and family of faith builds community, belonging, and impacts children in deeply spiritual ways. We believe children belong in the larger community of faith and worship as a family is the best hour you can spend together all week. There are Kids Worship Stations in both the Sanctuary and FLC that provide children’s bulletins and other resources for your elementary schoolers. We hope that you will join us for both hours as we point our children towards Christ!
Thank you for your interest in the Johns Creek Baptist Church Preschool. We would love to have your child become part of our program!
We believe each child is a special gift from God, with unique gifts and abilities. Our school offers a warm, nurturing, Christ-centered environment where gifted teachers and enjoyable experiences are brought together to challenge students academically and to enhance their love of learning.

One of the greatest joys in life is becoming a parent. We want to begin walking alongside you as you begin one of the greatest adventures that you will ever undertake… parenting!!! Baby dedication is not a checkmark on a long list of things that you are “supposed” to do when you have a child, but rather a starting point for you as a parent to commit to leading your child to know Jesus. We think that the things that you do now will shape who and what your child will become later.
If you are interested in participating in one of our Family Covenant Day celebrations please contact, Krystle Ripley, Children’s Ministry Assistant, at kripley@jcbc.org.
Going into 1st grade can be a scary, anxious, nervous, and exciting time for not only the parents, but also for the child. It is such a milestone for so many. They will learn so many things and begin to master skills that they will never forget. One of those skills is reading. So we want to capitalize on this, by having our 1st graders receive a Bible. What better book to learn to read from than God’s word. And what better book for parents to help their children learn to read in, than God’s word.
This presentation takes place during the month of August. If you have a 1st grader be on the lookout for more information on this great event!
