A place your kids will love—safe, fun, and full of people who are excited to know them and see them each week.
Learn
Through interactive teaching, worship, and prayer, kids begin to know Jesus in a way that makes sense to them.
Grow
We’re passionate about helping kids build faith, character, and confidence as they grow into the people God created them to be.
Our Vision
At Hope, we believe we’re not just shaping kids. We’re shaping the leaders, dreamers, and future of Santa Barbara.
Our mission is to equip this generation with the love, faith, and tools they need to navigate the world with purpose and joy.
God loves your chid more than we can imagine, and our team is here to bring that reality to life.
Kids Environments
Babies
Babies and toddlers are surrounded by God's love through the care and prayer of our trained volunteers. We play, read Bible stories, sing, and dance. As toddlers develop relational skills, we help them practice love, kindness, generosity, and gratitude.
Preschool
Our preschoolers experience God's love for them through exciting games, Bible stories, singing, and dancing. As preschool-age kids begin to develop literacy skills, we teach them about familiar Bible characters and stories.
Elementary
Our elementary kids learn God's truth and discover their value in Him. Through games, Bible lessons, group discussions, and worship, they develop a relationship with Jesus and learn to live in step with the Holy Spirit as they grow and mature.
Our Core Values
I am strong
I am kind
I am valuable
I am generous
I am loved
