Welcome to the J.O.Y. CLUB

J.O.Y. Club is Senior Adults at First Lyman who are Just Older Youth who are full of life, who love Jesus, and who enjoy sharing Christ together with love and joy.

We have more years behind us than in front of us, but we still lead others by example, showing what God has done and is doing in our lives.

Don't count us out, but count us all in! If you have an AARP card and get senior discounts, come join us and see what J.O.Y. Club is all about!
