All Saints Greek Orthodox JOY Group
What is JOY?
The Junior Orthodox Youth, or JOY, is the ministry to 3rd through 6th grade children of the Greek Orthodox Archdiocese of America.
Since JOY is a ministry, the orientation and implementation of the program should reflect the Orthodox Christian Faith, Tradition,
and Life.
Mission and Goal of the JOY Ministry
We lead our young people into experiencing the Orthodox Faith. By developing a personal relationship with our Lord and Savior, Jesus
Christ and becoming active sacramental members of the living Church, our young people will be equipped with tools necessary to assist
them in their journey toward salvation. By laying a foundation of faith at this age, the young people will have something that will
guide and strengthen them as they progress into junior high and high school.
