The Jaycee Creed
We Believe
- That faith in God gives meaning and purpose to human life;
- That the brotherhood of man transcends the sovereignty of nations;
- That economic justice can best be won by free men through free enterprise;
- That governments should be of laws rather than of men;
- That earth’s great treasure lies in human personality;
- And that service to humanity is the best work of life!
As Jaycees, our mission is to provide service and support to our communities.
And our goal is to have fun while doing it!
