“And this gospel of the kingdom will be preached to all nations, and then the end will come.” (Matthew 24v14 abridged) These words from Jesus show how much He loves the nations and that He won’t return until every people, tribe and tongue have been reached with the gospel. That mission has been passed from generation… Continue reading Learning to Reach out to Different Cultures
My Lesson from Lockdown – Faith
My lesson from lockdown doesn’t start in lockdown. It starts in August 2019, when a zip wire accident on holiday in France left me with a completely fractured metatarsal. Actually, you know what, it probably really started in August 2018, when my husband’s cousin sent me this card shortly after my dad passed away: The… Continue reading My Lesson from Lockdown – Faith
My Lesson from Lockdown – Kassidy
Introduction During the month of October each of our four elders are preaching on something (of God) that they learnt during lockdown. A sort of mini preaching series! Off the back of this, we are inviting anyone at Jubilee to contribute their own lesson from lockdown. This doesn't have to be in this blog format,… Continue reading My Lesson from Lockdown – Kassidy
Encountering Jesus during lockdown
A couple of weeks ago, I started to use a daily devotional app called Lectio 365 which is run by 24-7 Prayer and CWR, and the office team at Jubilee asked me to write this blog to reflect on my experience of using it. So, let’s set the scene: it’s just after 1pm, my 3… Continue reading Encountering Jesus during lockdown
Praying
For some reason, I’m not really sure why, I’ve found that I’ve had a lot more free time at home. So in between the times I watch YouTube and scroll Facebook, I thought I would focus some time on praying. I’ve often struggled with prayer, often I’ll sit down to pray and within a few… Continue reading Praying
Dig in
Like much of the nation (judging by the queues in B&Q the day before lock-down!), we’ve been spending a lot of time in our garden lately. A combination of good weather and having no place to go means that our garden is finally getting the seeing-to it needs! And so, the other day, whilst my… Continue reading Dig in
Coping with these times
The week before last, we at the church office decided to follow government advice, closed the office at the Henry Fry Centre, and started working from home. It was quite exciting at first, setting up video conferencing, exchanging documents online, communicating with everyone using a variety of apps. No longer commuting was great and I… Continue reading Coping with these times
The Joys of Chorizo
What a strange and unexpected time this is. Only three weeks ago I was keeping track of the news on Coronavirus around the world but thinking at that stage, “I don’t imagine it will affect us personally too much.” Oh, how wrong I was! Here I am, in our spare room having nearly completed nine days of working from home… Continue reading The Joys of Chorizo
Wonder 2020 – Warwick CU’s Events Week
We have had so much to thank God for during and beyond this year's events week! From providing a marquee at short notice, to bringing the least likely of friends along to the events, to being faithful in follow-up, He has provided far beyond our expectations. Praise God for His faithfulness! Starting each morning with an… Continue reading Wonder 2020 – Warwick CU’s Events Week
18-30s Socials: The story so far…
Been hearing about the 18-30s socials in church and want to know what they're about? Well, I hope this helps you out. It's a great set of events where we have time to get to know others at Jubilee a bit more and build on those relationships. It's a relaxed and chill environment where you… Continue reading 18-30s Socials: The story so far…
