Weekly Devotions
At Joyland, we believe the Word of God is essential to knowing God and to developing a God-centered approach to life. We want to help our children become familiar with and learn to treasure the Bible. Devotion Time consists of short Bible passages to read daily, accompanied by kid-friendly questions written by the Joyland teachers. These questions help guide the children in understanding the important parts of the text.

Hymn Of The Month
WHAT A FRIEND WE HAVE IN JESUS
What a friend we have in Jesus,
all our sins and griefs to bear!
What a privilege to carry
everything to God in prayer!
O what peace we often forfeit,
O what needless pain we bear,
all because we do not carry
everything to God in prayer.
Have we trials and temptations?
Is there trouble anywhere?
We should never be discouraged;
take it to the Lord in prayer.
Can we find a friend so faithful
who will all our sorrows share?
Jesus knows our every weakness;
take it to the Lord in prayer.
Are we weak and heavy laden,
cumbered with a load of care?
Precious Savior, still our refuge;
take it to the Lord in prayer.
Do thy friends despise, forsake thee?
Take it to the Lord in prayer!
In his arms he'll take and shield thee;
thou wilt find a solace there.
