What It’s Like
At Middletown

The Journey’s Middletown location is serving the communities of Middletown, Odessa, Townsend, and the surrounding areas. We’re a family-friendly location with a small-town vibe south of the canal.

The Journey is a real church for real people in Middletown, Delaware.

Meet Our Location Pastor

James Copeland, our Middletown Location Pastor, is originally from the south and moved to Journey City in 2022 to prepare to launch our Middletown location. James believes the local church is important because it brings people together to worship, grow, and serve the way God designed it, in community with others. In his downtime, James can be found spending time with his wife, playing Fortnite with his kids, and cheering on the Atlanta Braves.

“When we started looking for a church home, of course it was important that we felt comfortable but it was equally important that our kids had a wonderful experience. The Journey met both requirements! Our kids look forward to church on Sunday. Our girls were both recently baptized and one now serves in the preschool classroom. They are motivated to practice what they learn on Sunday and I am very grateful for this church family.”
