J.O.Y. in Service Holiday Missions

What is JOY in Service?

J.O.Y. (Joyfully Offering Yourself) in Service is Resurrections's holiday missions program.  The purpose of JOY in Service is to provide entry-level serving opportunities  through our ministry partners in urban Kansas City, while encouraging people to serve year-round.

Have You Served with JOY Before?

Consider doing a new JOY project this year, something that stretches you, or even coordinating your own project.  This will allow new servers the opportunity to sign-up, and also help you in your journey as a disicple of Christ.  You can contact Linda Hill (see below) for ideas to coordinate your own project!
