The Joy Story - Xhosa app for iPhone and iPad

The JOY Story App teaches children internationally about the building blocks of a happy and spirit-filled life.

Come along with Joy The Elephant as she teaches her friends about the nine Fruits of the Spirit, and most importantly, how to share them with others. With the help of this unique, colourful story app, and nine entertaining games, kids interact with the fundamentals and learn how to create a joyful, fulfilling life.

The JOY Project is a non-profit initiative that aims to build happier, spirit-filled communities based on the things that matter most: Love, Joy, Peace, Patience, Kindness, Generosity, Faithfulness, Friendliness and Self-Control.

These values, as taught in Galatians 5:22, inspired the creation of this vibrant mobile application for young children around the world to interact with the Fruits of the Spirit in a playful way.

The JOY Story is a proudly South African creation. We are blessed to have worked with the best of local creative talent:
