Jenilee Joy

Born in Baton Rouge. Raised in Seattle. Transplanted to the District of Washington for an internship at National Community Church. Grew up going on cross-country road trips to visit family and friends. Learning from her parents, that “bored” was a bad word, she works hard to make everything an adventure, and to discover the joy in every situation. She married Dan (the man) Hurley on July 6th, 2013, and one of their life mottos is to “Choose Adventure”, which sometimes is harder than it seems! The Adventure is continuing in Durham and Duke! (Go Blue Devils!)

Jenilee got her Joy from her parents, after trying to have a baby for over five years. When they discovered Jenilee was on her way, they wanted to mark the excitement with the name Joy. Joy has been a prophetic part of Jenilee’s life. Through her personality, attitude and stories, there is always some sort of joy weaved in.
