“In my Father’s house, there are many rooms. If it were not so, would I have told you that I go to prepare a place for you? And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again and will take you to myself, that where I am you may be also.” John 14:1-3

JOY Bible Camp is a place made ready ‘prepared’ in all seasons to bring people into God’s presence. As we currently behold the fall colours, we are reminded by Paul "For the invisible things of him from the creation of the world are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even his eternal power and Godhead; so that they are without excuse." Romans 1:20. Here at Joy there is no excuse as we are given a beautiful sample, a mere shadow of the heavenly place that the LORD is preparing for us throughout the year in every season.

For 75 years this God-centered mission has witnessed innumerable encounters with Christ through His Word, His Creation, and His Spirit. We celebrate and reflect with gratitude on what God has established at Joy. The pictures on the walls of Joy Bible Camp are a testament to evolution from humble beginnings to testimonies of innumerable lives changed, spanning generations. JOY has established foundations that declare a bold faith in a faithful God. As we mark 75 years, we continue to prepare JOY’s foundations for what future generations need. Some old foundations need restoration, and others need revival. We invite you to partner with us at JOY, a place preparing to commit the next 75 years to our unchanged purpose of lives changed … forever!

Yours in His service,

Martin and Shannan Lord
