Announcements
Worship Schedule
New Joy has two worship services on Sundays. The early service begins at 8:00 am and the second service begins at 9:45.
Our 9:45 service offers loving childcare in the nursery as well as Sunday's Cool during the service for children ages 3 years through 6th grade.
CROP Walk
New Joy will join the churches of Hamilton County in this year's CROP Walk event by stepping out in the CROP Hunger Walk on Sunday, October 3 at 1:30 pm at Downtown Carmel's Gazebo. If you would like to walk, please contact Roberta Ressler. We hope you will pledge to support our walkers with a financial gift, either on a walker's envelope or online! Find additional information at www.cropwalkonline.org.
Scrip Sundays
New Joy is making the Scrip Program even more available! Every first Sunday of the month will be "Scrip Sunday" where we'll take and place orders for Scrip Gift cards, Marsh grocery cards and Kroger grocery cards. The reason for the effectiveness of scrip is simple: families generate revenue through purchases they would make anyway. Groceries, clothing, toys, gifts, even gasoline can be purchased with scrip. An organization with 150 families easily spends between one and two million dollars per year on food, clothing and other essentials. If these families use scrip for these purchases, they can raise as much as $40,000 to $80,000 per year for their organization - without spending an additional penny!
