About Joy

A family church teaching people to reach their world

At Joy we love God, the family and desire to make disciples of Jesus Christ throughout each of our spheres of influence. We'd love for you to join us and get plugged in on our journey.

Searching for a new church is a big decision and actually visiting a new church is an even bigger step. If you’re new to Joy, we understand you may want to fly under the radar a little bit to check us out. Go ahead! Take your time, explore our website, check out our One Minute Tour of Joy, and if you have any questions you can contact us here. Most of all, when you’re ready, we’d love to have you join us for one of our Sunday services.
