What Will I Experience in Worship at Spirit of Joy!

- Modern and ancient forms of worship meeting together as we praise God.
- A family-oriented experience where both children and adults of all ages are engaged.
What to Wear?
When attending a church for the first time, people often wonder what they should wear.
In our community, people wear the clothes that make them feel most comfortable worshiping God. There is not expectation of a certain style of dress. You would not be out of place in jeans, or in a shirt and tie, or anything in-between. We believe that being present together in worship is much more important than what we wear on Sunday morning.
Children in Worship
At Spirit of Joy!, we believe that worship is for all of God’s children. Children of every age are welcome to fully participate in worship, and parents with young children can feel comfortable knowing that the sounds of children are part of our joyful praise.
What is Communion?
Every week when we gather, we participate in Holy Communion – sometimes also called Holy Eucharist. As we share in bread and wine, we believe that Christ is truly present in the sacrament and among us. We welcome all baptized persons to join us for Communion as they are comfortable doing so.
Are Masks Required?
Following the most recent recommendations of the CDC (March 2022) we are not currently requiring masks for worship. We recognize that for some people, the best decision is to continue wearing a mask, and we respect the decision of those who decide to wear a mask.
