Joyful Community Services, Inc.

Serving Our Community

Our Story

The ministry of Joyful Community Services started when one of my community members said, "The children around here need to go somewhere..." Then she looked at me and said, "And you can take them somewhere!" Of course this was a surprise to me, that she thought that way of me. Then the Lord confirmed it, so here we are, years later, still going! In 2014, the Lord placed on my heart to have it established as a non-profit organization, and therefore, giving me the name “Joyful Community Services”. With an indication that our community would work together! I quickly realized it was not for me to do it all by myself, nor could I, but to seek support from others. Some children and youth are given an opportunity to earn an expense paid trip because of their good behavior and good grades at school. Hopefully, this way they will study harder and look forward to being rewarded during the summer. The purpose of this ministry is to also provide for others in need. This may be a one-time assistance with car repairs, rent, or school clothing for children, and providing trips that are both educational and fun. Therefore, I have adopted the word “PECK” which shows that by our community working together we can help others, one “PECK” at a time! P = Provision provides access!E = Exposure creates new vision!C = Courage stimulates changes!K = Knowledge enhances power!
