JOY
JUNIOR ORTHODOX YOUTH
WHO IT SERVES?
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.
The mission and goal of the JOY ministry is to lead our young people
into experiencing the Holy 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.
