Our Ministries

Inspiring Our Youth and Giving Back to the Community

GOYA / JOY - Greek Orthodox Youth of America / Junior Orthodox Youth

goya groupTraditionally JOY (Junior Orthodox Youth) is for youth in grades 4-8 and GOYA (Greek Orthodox Youth of America)  is for 9-12.

However our church is small and our youth know each other well so we combined the two groups into one. The goal of our group is to grow in our Orthodox faith and develop a deeper sense of community. We participate/initiate service projects that support our church and its ministries.

And we spend time supporting each other and having fun experiences together.

Our mission, from its foundation 83 years ago, was to help new immigrants to adjust to this country, and eventually grew to assist students, and demonstrate local and international philanthropy. They promote the Greek Orthodox Faith, through supporting our local parishes with also welcoming visitors and new members. And we make great baklava!
