MINISTRY
"Just. Older. Youth."
Statistics will tell you that some of the most productive years for a person’s life are from their 60th to 70th birthday. The JOY Ministry consists of seasoned followers of Jesus Christ excited about serving and living out their faith in the Lord. The JOY Ministry has a tremendous legacy with First Baptist Church, and we celebrate the many people God has placed in our congregation to help pave the way for future generations.
This ministry is involved with small groups, summer Bible studies, grandparenting seminars, Christmas and other seasonal banquets, concerts, local outings and an annual extended trip. Missions is also a priority for our JOY Ministry and annually we provide a mission opportunity away from Decatur as well as monthly partnerships with local non-profit organizations.
Staying connected is a challenge, but as we continue to build relationships with one another, there have been many opportunities to grow together through zoom meetings and online Bible studies.
If you are not connected to our JOY Ministry (55+), please make it a point this year to get involved and take your walk with Christ to a Higher Level!
