Jessica Brown children's ministry Coordinator
Jessica has attended Unity of KC North for 8 years. She is currently a school bus driver for Liberty and is working toward her teaching certification. She has 4 children, Jamey, Autumn, Kai, and Willow. Jessica believes that children are innately wise and considers what her role is to help guide the children to the truth within, rather than placing knowledge into an otherwise empty container. She learns just as much from our Sunday School friends as they do from her. Learning is a lifelong experience, as is teaching, and Jessica feels honored to get to continue serving our church family in this way.
