Joyce is a lifelong resident of Argyle and grew up attending APC. She enjoyed singing in the Junior Choir and in 7th grade joined the Adult Choir. Her love of music prompted her to take organ lessons from Harry McNeil and after just 3 lessons began getting calls as a substitute organist in many area churches. In 1972 the session offered Joyce the job of organist and choir director and as they say, the rest is history. As her relationship with Christ has grown so has her insight in finding anthems with lyrics that speak to others about the love that Jesus offers. Joyce’s ability to lead in worship is a blessing to our congregation.
