Joy Community Church's Purpose
Our vision for Joy Community Church is simple.
We exist to Reach Up, Reach Out, and Reach In.
These three are the biblical mandates of the local church.
Reach Up
We work hard to provide an exciting and God-honoring environment for worship. When we worship God, we express our love and devotion to Him. What an honor it is to humbly come before the Creator of the Universe. All of us are wired for worship, and the only way we can express true love to God and worship Him is through a personal relationship with Jesus Christ.
Reach Out
Another key purpose of Joy Community Church is to reach out to people who are outside the family of God. Everyday, we rub shoulders with people who are just an invite away from a life-changing encounter with Christ. Invite your friends, family, neighbors and co-workers to attend Joy Community so they will hear and understand what it means to be a follower of Christ.
Reach In
We also exist to help you as a Christ-follower grow in your spiritual maturity and become full-court followers of Christ. Because the Christian life is one of constant growth and development, we are focused on providing biblical principles that can be applied to every day life. We want to help you move from a spectator in the stands to the game of active service.
