Jill Valkanet

GM Kids Pastor

Jill and her husband, Mike, have been faithful members of GM since 2014. And it’s this faithfulness that spurs her passion to teach our littlest ones about Jesus in GMKids.

Jill leads this ministry, to babies through PreK, with intentionality and creativity. In every classroom and at every age, our kids learn about Jesus and His love for them through age-appropriate Bible lessons, worship songs, and fun activities. Not only is GMKids a safe and secure environment, it is also one of love and respect for each child we teach.

Jill and Mike have 2 children, Emery and Ryan, and together lead an LifeGroup Bible study. Mike serves as a small-group leader in the GM Brotherhood and in FUSE Student Ministry.  Jill is also a small-group leader with the GM Sisterhood.
