The Jubilee Churches are planning this wonderful opportunity to join with neighboring churches for a time of prayer and worship. The theme is taken from Ephesians 4:4, “There is one body and one Spirit, just as you were called to the one hope of your calling.”

There is a powerful witness to the transformative power of the Holy Spirit when Christians of varied backgrounds come together with a shared goal and vision with authenticity and sincerity. The rainbow sign of covenant with God becomes realized in the unity of the Church.
