JOY Ministry

​
The adult ministry of New Wynn Chapel Missionary Baptist Church "JOY" has as its purpose to communicate and be Senior Ambassadors of God's love to those in the church family and to those outside the church. The assumption behind the adult ministry, the groups and the activities sponsored by this ministry is that they exist for the purpose of serving, not being served; of giving, not recieving. Helping to meet the needs of others can provide an ongoing sense of purpose for older adults. The ability to recreate gives people the chance to re-create themselves at this stage of their lives. Laughter, fun, humor and play are all vital ingredients for the well-being of older persons. Older adults, no less than other people, want to continue learning. In our fast-paced and chaning society, older adults need opportunities to continue the lifelong process of learning and growing. Fellowship meals, game days and travel events are a few ways congregations can involve older adults in recreation.
