About Us
Spirit of Joy started in 1997 with a God-sized vision. God is alive and stirring here, calling us to share the joy of Christ with our neighbors and with God’s help to have a significant impact on life in East Orange County and around the world. We seek to be a faith community in which lives are renewed as we share the love of Jesus by serving others with a spirit of joy. We strive to be innovative yet faithful to our Lutheran heritage, with God’s grace as the motivation for all we do.
Spirit of Joy is a congregation of the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America (ELCA), a national network of 9,000 congregations committed to sharing God's amazing grace with all people. Click below to learn more.
