The Joy Catcher

Join a little girl, her brothers and her very adventurous grandpa in an epic moment of baseball history. Based on her true life story, Bethany creatively shares the impact people can make by simply believing in the joy others can bring. Knowing others are truly glad to be with us, no matter what, brings us true joy deep within our hearts.

We, according to joy, require no fixing.

Joy is safe.

Joy offers time to try new things.

Joy is found in Christ and in you and me.

We will donate a portion of all proceeds from The Joy Catcher to the CHARGE Syndrome Foundation to help families attend conferences, connect with support, and further medical research. Thank you for your support and for spreading joy!
