Welcome to Journey!

Journey is a community of followers of Jesus in Fredericton, New Brunswick, Canada. We are made up of people at various stages of our faith journeys, and everyone is loved and belongs. We believe in living our day-to-day lives to show Jesus’ strength and goodness with every step.

Journey is about helping everyone find out how they fit into God’s plan. Sometimes life gets tough, but with a strong church community to help, we know that anyone can find their way. We want you to live the rewarding, fulfilling life that God has planned for you.

Feel free to join us Sundays, incognito if you like. If you’re interested in moving forward, talk to us about what your next step might be. It may be that you want to explore more about Jesus, through Alpha, a film series that explores the basics of Christianity. Maybe it’s time to get connected in Christian community through a weekly Life Group or a Serving Team. One size doesn’t fit all, and your life and journey is unique! Whatever your stage, we are here to help.

Planning Your Sunday Visit

“Our service time is at 11am Sunday mornings. We have tons of parking at 131 Duncan Lane (Prospect & Duncan), but you will want to arrive 10-15 minutes before service time, especially if you have children to check in. Our atmosphere is casual and friendly, many cultures are represented, and great coffee is available at Conversations Cafe. Our worship music is heartfelt and passionate, and our teaching is Biblical, life-changing and practical. See you Sunday!”
Gary SharpeWorship & Communications Pastor

“We love new people and each week we have people joining us for the first time. We never single anyone out, so you can remain incognito if you like! Whenever you're ready, fill out a "Hello" card (or the "Hello" form below), and see us after the service at the Welcome Desk for a little gift.”
Matthew PalmerDiscipleship & Leadership Pastor

“We welcome many families each week and we have special programming for children during the 11am service. Check our NEXTGEN Page for details. Follow the signs, or just ask anyone for directions, to take your children to the children's programming for check-in. Nursery and Pre-school check-in is on the main floor at the back of the lobby, while Grades K-5 check-in is upstairs - look for the red stairwell. After the kids are checked-in, grab a free coffee and head into the Celebration Centre! After the service, you will find your children in the same room you dropped them off.”
Luke BudreauNext Gen Pastor

What Others are Saying

“
Great worship and family oriented. Messages are Biblical and sound as well as relevant. Come join us on Sunday morning if you are looking for a church!

As a young adult I was nervous finding a church and walking in alone. Everyone at Journey was beyond welcoming, and they connected me with other young adults to sit with and become friends with. Journey's values are 'Belong, Believe, Become, Build', so if you're wondering if you belong here, the answer is yes!

Very welcoming, friendly and Christ centered. We started going during Covid and it wasn't two weeks before all the staff knew us by name! We feel at home here and are happy to be involved.

God in His infinite wisdom found the perfect position for me - at the front door of Journey! That's where my heart lies. What a blessing it is to greet people each week and make them feel welcome and loved. I'll see you at the front door!

“
I am so blessed to be with my Journey Family. God has blessed me abundantly serving with the Best Years Fellowship and hosting Life Groups. My favourite verse is: "Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways submit to him, and he will make your paths straight." Proverbs 3:5-6.
Betty Nicholson

“
Journey has been a part of my life, for my whole life! Throughout the years, I've been able to grow deeper in my relationship with God through serving. Honouring and worshiping God through music is a beautiful experience, and I am blessed to be part of an incredible team. I am grateful to have a church family with people who are supportive, encouraging, and who walk alongside me on my walk with the Lord.

We started attending Journey through online services in Brazil, and the first person we met in Canada was Pastor Matthew Maxwell who welcomed us with open arms and introduced us to the church. In a short time, we got involved serving on the worship team, and our daughters love being a part of Journey Kids. We are very happy to be a part of the Journey family.
