Joy Reigns Lutheran Church Joy Reigns Lutheran Church
A living, breathing expression of God's joy! Join us Sunday mornings for livestreamed in-person worship at 9:30 am!

Joy Reigns worship has an uplifting and energetic praise band, meaningful messages, warm and friendly people to welcome you! Joy Reigns Church, established in 2004, is a congregation under development in the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America (ELCA). We exist that all may know Jesus Christ and become his fully devoted followers. We would be privileged to introduce you to Jesus and help you discover his love for you. We believe that his love and grace are the most powerful gifts you will ever be offered in your whole life! They are the root of the JOY we offer to you as a community of faith. If you are new to the church, we will introduce you to the Bible and the Christian faith in life-giving ways. We will share worship with you through video, contemporary songs and relevant, story-filled messages. We have no expectations that you come with a church background but only that you come seeking to learn about God and his love for you. We all come as sinners to be forgiven and so each of us comes seeking a new relationship with God through Jesus Christ. We dress informally that you might come and be comfortable among us. We often stand and clap in praise to God but you are free to sit and just observe --- at least for a while. We provide lyrics on video (we have very few traditional hymns) so that you will find it easy to follow along. We want you to experience our friendship and joy and before each service we pray you will discover God's presence and spirit in our midst. If you are a long-time Christian looking for a new church, you will find a community breathing with excitement. We challenge people to deepen their discipleship. We are committed to a mission that requires that we make a difference in this community and in the world. We pray that God will help us catch the wave of spiritual growth God is building in this community.

🕯️ We remember. We give thanks.

As we prepare to observe All Saints, we invite you to help us remember the people who have shaped our lives and whose memory continues to shine.

Share a photo of a loved one you would like remembered as part of our All Saints observance.

Together, we honor their lives, their love and the ways their light remains with us. ❤️

Today is the last day to add photos.

Christmas is coming to Joy Reigns, and we’re putting together a Kids Christmas Choir to help make our Christmas worship extra special!

If your child loves to sing — or just wants to be part of the fun — we’d love for them to join us as we prepare to celebrate the birth of Jesus together.

✨ No choir experience needed. Just bring your voice and Christmas spirit!

Today is Indigenous Peoples' Day!

"Give thanks for Indigenous communities that have lived in the Americas and other parts of the world for thousands of years. Pray that we will not overlook them in our telling of history and that we will honor our church’s commitment to repentance, reconciliation, healing, respect and unity as children of God." —Prayer Ventures

With news of death penalty stories in back to back weeks, we as an ELCA congregation are against the death penalty. Read our national statement from 1991.

The Evangelical Lutheran Church in America (ELCA) is grounded in ancient and timely teachings about a powerful and patient God.
