GT KIDS

Raising Kids Who Know Jesus & Walk With Him

Welcome!

We’re so glad you’re here.

At GT Kids, we believe church should be a place where children feel safe, loved, and excited to grow. Our heart is not just to watch kids during service—but to disciple them, to help them truly know who Jesus is, and to create space for them to experience Him personally.


Hi, I’m Courtney Ortega, the GT Kids Ministry Leader.

It is such an honor to serve your families and your children. My heart is to create a space where kids feel deeply loved, where they can be themselves, and where they can grow in a real relationship with Jesus—not just hear about Him, but truly know Him.

I care deeply about partnering with parents and building something meaningful for our kids—something that helps them become confident, grounded, and spiritually aware as they grow.

We’re so excited to have your family be part of GT Kids.

What Your Kids Will Experience

Every service is designed with intention—balancing fun, connection, and spiritual growth.

Your child will experience:

  • Bible teaching focused on who Jesus really is

  • Worship where kids are encouraged to participate and engage

  • Prayer time that teaches them how to talk to God confidently

  • Small group connection and meaningful conversations

  • Opportunities to share testimonies and build boldness

  • Games, activities, and moments of joy and friendship

    We want kids to leave not just entertained—but changed, encouraged, and connected.

Our Vision for Your Kids

We are passionate about raising up kids who:

  • Know God personally through Scripture

  • Pray with confidence and intercede for others

  • Share their faith in everyday life

  • Engage in worship with their whole heart

  • Recognize God’s voice and grow spiritually

  • Take ownership of their faith

We believe kids are capable of so much more than we often expect—and we’re here to help them grow into that.

Community & Connection

We deeply value community and family connection.

Church isn’t just about a service—it’s about building relationships, supporting one another, and growing together. That’s why we regularly create opportunities for families to connect outside of regular services.

We host events throughout the year that are designed to bring families together, build friendships, and create lasting memories.

We encourage you to:

Get involved

Stay connected

Join in whenever you can

Stay tuned for upcoming events—we’d love to see your whole family there!

Our Heart

Above everything else, our goal is simple:

That every child would know: “Jesus loves me, He is real, and I can know Him for myself.”

Mark 10:14-15 NIV

[14] When Jesus saw this, he was indignant. He said to them, “Let the little children come to me, and do not hinder them, for the kingdom of God belongs to such as these. [15] Truly I tell you, anyone who will not receive the kingdom of God like a little child will never enter it


John 7:37-38 NIV

[37] On the last and greatest day of the festival, Jesus stood and said in a loud voice, “Let anyone who is thirsty come to me and drink. [38] Whoever believes in me, as Scripture has said, rivers of living water will flow from within them.”


Children’s Ministry Leadership

Do you share God's heart for kids? We'd love to have you be a part of our kid's ministry team!

We believe that children of any age can deeply know and love Jesus. Let us know if you are interested in helping, and our Kids Ministry pastors will be in touch with you.
