Why Become a Member?
As you come to Him, the living Stone – rejected by men but chosen by God and precious to Him – you also, like living stones, are being built into a spiritual house to be a holy priesthood, offering spiritual sacrifices acceptable to God through Jesus Christ.

(I Peter 2:4-5)

God calls people to Himself not to collect a bunch of individual bricks, but to build them together to form a spiritual house where His presence resides (Ephesians 2:22), with Jesus being the chief cornerstone of this house (Ephesians 2:20). Biblically it is impossible to live out the Christian faith on your own, but our faith and knowledge of God grows within community. Being connected to God results in being connected with other Christians (John 15:1-17).

FAQ

If I’m not a member can I still get involved?
Absolutely! In fact, we would encourage you to do so. Membership is not required to participate with us in community (action tracks), celebration (Sunday), prayer meetings, serving, etc. We do, however, require membership for leadership and teaching roles. Membership is a commitment and we are aware that might take some time to make that decision.

Can I attend the Membership Course even if I do not plan to be a member?
Yes. While most people, do go on to become members, there are some who just want to know more about Jubilee and do not immediately become members
