Greetings

Thank you for taking an interest in Small Groups at Joy Christian Center!

 

Have you noticed that much of what we do in life is done in small groups?  Most of these groups share some kind of identity or purpose.  From co-workers to teammates, family, friends, and neighbors, the more you look around the more you'll notice that life happens in groups!  For some reason, that doesn't always translate to a person's experience at church.  Sometimes people feel lost in the "crowd."  Other people have gifts or abilities, talents, and interests that they are passionate about and wonder how they can use them to bless others.

 

At Joy, our goal goes beyond sharing a message on Sunday morning.  Our greatest desire is to help you find fulfillment and joy in doing life together with other believers while growing in your faith.  HeartBeats provides numerous ways to be involved with these life-changing groups and helps you take practical steps to develop the God-given purpose and passion of your heart.  Many at Joy are finding and developing lasting friendships and encouragement when common interests are shared through HeartBeats.

 

The small groups that are listed in this directory are designed to assist you in your development as a Christian and provide you with the tools to walk out the plan of God for your life . . . successfully.  Take some time to look through the current HeartBeats directory.  I'm sure there is a group that will fit you.
