Each spring and fall, Joyful Light offers two age appropriate, and high quality musical shows, as well as a week long summer camp in both June and July. It is fun for all ages, and offers a safe place for youth to develop their gifts and talents.

Even though it is only the youth on stage, a successful show season is a task that involves the whole family. From set creation, costumes, volunteer hours — and finally show week, it is a ministry that truly engages the whole family.

The vision at Joyful Light is first to share Biblical truth with kids in worship, Word, and prayer, and then to teach and engage in theater.

Joyful Light Youth Theater exists to use theater to discover and develop children's God-given gifts to make a joyful noise and bring God glory both on and off the stage.
