 <title>JourneyLand</title>
 <link>http://www.talkinchurch.com/groups/journeyland</link>
 <description>&lt;p&gt; Journeyland is a program for children that is held during The Journey’s Sunday Worship Experiences. Currently there are four classes for Journeyland kids offered during each Worship Experience, grouped by age — nursery, 2 &amp; 3 year olds, 4 year olds through kindergarten, and 1st through 5th graders. Each class is led by excellent Children&#039;s Ministry Staff.  Our teachers receive background checks, and genuinely care about the safety of your child.  Nursery parents get vibrating pagers in case they are needed during the Worship Experience. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt; Journeyland is a place where kids have fun.  At Journeyland, kids play games together, design crafts, learn a variety of play-ful songs, and enjoy snacks.  Journeyland is also a place where kids learn and grow in who they are.  At Journeyland, kids develop their relationships with God.  They hear powerful stories about God from the Bible, are taught how to talk to God, and learn Bible Verses.  Journeyland is a place where kids feel safe, are safe, and develop life-long friendships.&lt;/p&gt;

 <title>18-20 Somethings</title>
 <link>http://www.talkinchurch.com/group/18_20_somethings</link>
 <description>The name of our group is 18-20 Somethings, but it&#039;s really more about friendship and the pursuit of faith together.  We like to study the Bible and ask what it really means for our lives.  We&#039;re not interested in surface level discussions or surface level faith or surface level friendships.  Our desire is to welcome people in our age group to pursue life together.

 <title>International Impact Team</title>
 <link>http://www.talkinchurch.com/group/international_impact_team</link>
 <description>The International Impact Team exists to fill a gap between the Journey Church and marginalized and impoverished communities.  The mission of the team is to share the Journey’s spiritual, human, and financial resources with international communities suffering from poverty, oppression, and injustice. 

The active ministries of the International Impact Team include:

* Step Up Honduras: Tim and Jaclyn Horan are currently raising support to serve as long-term missionaries in Honduras.  For more information, visit their website at: http://stepuphonduras.org/. 

* Limpopo Area Development Program, Zimbabwe: Through World Vision’s C2C Program, The Journey Church is supporting children, communities, and churches in the Limpopo region of Zimbabwe.  Limpopo is an area that has been devastated by the AIDS pandemic, severe economic hardship, and recent droughts.  Families from the Journey are sponsoring 100 children living in the region.  Sponsorship dollars are used to bless the lives of children by transforming their communities from places of poverty and despair to places of hope and opportunity.  To learn more about Limpopo and child sponsorship opportunities, email Jason Jones at jjones@rbf.com.
 
* AIDS Caregiver Kits: Every 14 seconds, a child loses a parent to AIDS.  World Vision has organized a vast network of local volunteers to provide care and comfort for those suffering from the disease.  But these caregivers lack even the simplest items needed to prolong lives and comfort the sick.  The Journey supports caregivers by assembling caregiver kits, which contain basic medical supplies and medications, such as rubber gloves, cotton balls, washcloths, and anti-fungal cream.  
 
For more information about the International Impact Team, including ways to get involved, email Jason Jones at jjones@rbf.com.

 <description>The Journey Men&#039;s ministry thrives by providing great activities and opportunities for men to have fun and bond in faith and friendship.  We&#039;re not the type of group that holds hands, but we sure do want to grow as men pursing character and godly traits in our lives.    

We have a regular 2nd Saturday morning men&#039;s breakfast, plus monthly activities, and an annual men&#039;s retreat.

 <title>Uniquely You</title>
 <link>http://www.talkinchurch.com/group/uniquely_you</link>
 <description>&lt;h1&gt;Uniquely You&lt;/h1&gt;

&lt;h3&gt;What is this about?&lt;/h3&gt;
The goal of this program is to help you discover the ministry that best fits your personality and fits the Spiritual Gifts God has given you in order to be more effective in ministry at the Journey and in your life.

&lt;h3&gt;What is Uniquely You?&lt;/h3&gt;
Uniquely You is the material we use to help probe and discover our spiritual gifts and how they relate to our behavior/personality. It consists of taking a “profile” (or questionnaire) and reviewing the detailed results to help you focus on the gifts that God has given you and how you relate to others around you. Although the assessment is faith-based on biblical concepts, it will reveal insights into your personality you may not have considered. 

This program at the Journey takes very little time and consists of three parts:
1) Taking an online questionaire to help you determine your behavioral type and Spiritual Gifts
2) Reviewing and interpreting the results with someone else
3) If you like, using the results to help you get connected to a ministry at the Journey!

&lt;h3&gt;How can I go about doing this?&lt;/h3&gt;

It&#039;s simple. Just contact Kyle at kyle@theguichards.com if you are interested. &lt;p&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.talkinchurch.com/group/uniquely_you&quot;&gt;read more&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</description>
