<title>No Title - Who We Are</title>

Who are we? 

Journey Covenant Church is a community of followers of Jesus Christ who want to share the grace and love of God and grow in His Word.

Journey was started by Rolling Hills Covenant Church in 2002 by one of their staff pastors, Jim Stewart. Through the years Journey church met in homes, parks, and public grade schools and is now sharing church facilities with Tree of Life Church (formerly South Bay Church of the Brethren) and Visionland, a Korean church, with each congregation maintaining its own identity and ministry. Journey&#39;s worship service is at 9:00 a.m., Tree of life at 10:45 a.m., and Visionland at 1:00 p.m. Journey also has a teen program at 10:45 a.m.

Journey is uniquely known for its welcoming, casual atmosphere, its annual summer camp for families of children with autism, and its active involvement with a mission church in San Fernando, Philippines. 

The Evangelical Covenant church (ECC) is a rapidly growing multi-ethnic denomination in the United States and Canada with ministries on five continents. Founded in 1885 by Swedish immigrants, the ECC values the Bible as the Word of God, the gift of God&#39;s grace and ever-deepening spiritual life that comes through faith in Jesus Christ, the importance of extending God&#39;s love and compassion to a hurting world, and the strength that comes from unity within diversity. For more information about the Covenant denomination, see covchurch.org.</description>

Children&#39;s Ministry Team

Journey&#39;s Children&#39;s Ministry Team is committed to partnering with parents to teach children to know, follow and share Jesus.

 Journey believes that parents, working with the church, have the primary responsibility for the spiritual nurturing of their children. Every effort has been made to structure the curricula in a way that allows the church to &quot;walk along side&quot; parents, enabling and equipping them in this God-given role. For that reason, we strongly encourage parental involvement in the classroom and encourage parents to take part in any suggested Scripture reading and take home activities the children may bring home. 

The Children&#39;s Ministry Team is made up of 50-60 volunteers who teach and assist on Sunday mornings to offer classes for children from nursery to 6th grade. There is also a class for children with autism making it possible for their parents to attend the worship service. 

The last Sunday of the month is Adventure Sunday when the children rotate from station to station to hear about missions in a foreign country, do a craft, and spend their hard-earned Adventure Bucks at Journey&#39;s little store. </description>

<title>WHAT JOURNEY BELIEVES - What We Believe</title>

About the Scripture?
We believe the entire Bible is the inspired Word of God and that men were moved by the Spirit to write words of Scripture. Therefore, the Bible is without error.

About God?
We believe in one God who exists in three distinct persons (Father, Son, and Holy Spirit). We believe that Jesus Christ is the second member of the Trinity (the Son of God) who became flesh to reveal God to man and to become the Savior of the lost world.

About People?
We believe people were created in the image of God to have fellowship with Him, but became alienated from that relationship through sinful disobedience. As a result, people are totally incapable of coming back into a right relationship with God by their own effort.

About Salvation?
We believe that the shed blood of Jesus Christ on the cross provides the sole basis for the forgiveness of sins. Therefore, salvation only occurs when a person places his faith in the death and resurrection of Christ as the sufficient payment for his sin.

About the Christian life?
We believe that every Christian should live for Christ and not for himself. By obedience to the Word and daily yielding to the Spirit, every believer will mature and become conformed to the image of Christ.

About the Church?
We believe that the church is the body of Christ of which Jesus Christ is the Head. The members are those who have trusted by faith the finished work of Christ. The purpose of the church is to glorify God by loving Him and by making Him known to a lost world.</description>
