Knowing God’s Call The last 9 months has been scary, uncertain, full of media negativity and unrivalled. (There, I managed not to use the overworked word of 2020!) But it has also been a time to slow down, to appreciate God’s creation and to listen to God. One of the things I noticed was that […]
Creativity and Jubilee Culture
Creativity and Jubilee Culture Last time we looked at how creativity is an innate part of our human makeup. This time Bernice shows how creativity is a large part of the culture at Jubilee. What do we mean by culture? Culture for Jubilee is about the kind of church we want to be. Culture sets […]
Emerging from Lockdown: Emotional Health and Well-being
Today we welcome Hannah Chittick. Emerging from Lockdown: Emotional Health and Well-being I felt stirred to write about our emotional health as we come out of lockdown. Is anyone else finding this phase has its own distinct challenges? It’s not the same as lockdown, nor is it a return to any kind of the ‘normality’ […]
Broken But Beautiful
Broken but Beautiful We were excited to welcome Justyn Towler from Renewal as our guest speaker recently. He brought a challenging and encouraging message for Jubilee Church. You can listen to Justyn’s message or watch the video: Broken but Beautiful His theme of ‘broken but beautiful’ reminded me of the Japanese art of Kintsugi. This […]
Children’s thoughts on lockdown
Children’s thoughts on lockdown I’ve seen quite a bit in the media about how adults have been coping since 23rd March. I’ve also seen adults talking about how they think children are coping or not coping. I thought it would be good to ask some of the primary age children in Jubilee Kids about their […]
Going Deeper
Going Deeper Life is quite different at the moment for all of us. Many of us have needed to shelter at home with minimal social contact apart from Zoom meetings. Simon spoke a relevant message the day before lockdown happened: Psalm 91 In our online prayer meetings, lifegroup meetings and the main church meeting, many […]
The Importance of Story Telling
The Importance of Story Telling ‘Do you remember when …?’ How often when friends or family get together does a conversation start with ‘Do you remember when we …’ and a story begins of a holiday, an occasion, a memory or an adventure. It’s not a story from a book, or a story that’s necessarily […]
God Stories of Healing
God Stories of Healing Throughout 2019 we are going to share stories of how God has changed people’s lives, starting with two food related stories. Ruth H On Sunday June 24th 2018 I attended the service at Jubilee Church while on holidays. Towards the end of the service a gentleman went to the front to […]
Clothed with Dignity
This week’s post is from the Storehouse team. Clothed with Dignity People ask me “Why did you set up the Storehouse? And what’s it all about?” Well the answer is quite simple really, we set it up because as a Church we felt we had to respond practically to the very real needs that families […]
Exploring Jubilee
Exploring Jubilee Family is an important part of the culture of Jubilee. It’s one of our five values which we aim to live out together. We believe that the church is a supernatural super-family tied by something thicker than blood. We forgive mistakes, celebrate each other’s victories and work towards growing up into the likeness […]

Today we welcome Peter Davey. Peter is married to Jill and together they have been in Christian ministry since the early days of their marriage. They have four grown up children and dozens of grandchildren and are a great addition to the Jubilee family in their example and wisdom of years. Taking the bandages off […]
