In June, the Jubilee Churches welcomed a new church to Jubilee Churches—Gloucester Point Baptist Church.

The Rev. Dr. Ed Walker, pastor of Bellamy United Methodist Church, is the covener of the Jubilee Churches of Gloucester.

In May, a young mother in our community recently faced one of life’s toughest challenges. With two little ones—just 2 and 4 years old—depending on her, she suddenly lost her job and quickly fell behind on rent. As the threat of eviction and a court date quickly approached, fear and uncertainty took hold. But even in her struggle, she showed remarkable determination. She quickly found new employment and began working again, confident that her new income would be enough to support her family moving forward. She also turned to GUEST and Jubilee Churches looking for help—doing everything she could to protect the home her children know and love until she was able to start receiving pay from her new employer. For the first time, she reached out for support from the community.

In May, Jubilee Churches provided support to 6 families, totaling $2,339 - assistance was provided for rent and Dominion power assistance.
