What Is Kid Venture?
At Turning Pointe Church, we prioritize children as an integral part of our church community. They are not just the future but a vibrant part of our present.
Our mission is clear: to reach, teach, and equip our kids to fulfill their true potential. Soon, we will have access to state-of-the-art facilities that will be a blessing to utilize as an added tool to aid in guiding kids to Jesus, and with our dedicated team of volunteers, we ensure that every child is safe, having fun, and growing in their relationship with Jesus.
