Meet some of the people from jubilee churches merseyside
Derek Blake
I originate from Somerset and after being involved in the defence industry ended up as a Service Manager for a Christian special needs housing association. I have had a personal relationship with my God, the Creator, for almost thirty years and that fact continues to amaze my analytical mind.
Andrew Greenhalgh
God first picked me out via Billy Graham's Mission England tour at the age of nine or 10, but I did not make a firm commitment to Him for another nine years, when I was confirmed in the Church of England.
However, after wandering further and further off His path, God sensibly realised that drastic measures were needed in order for me to get off my ever so slightly lazy behind. To this end, He set me up on a blind date with Julie, who belonged to a New Frontiers church in Chelmsford, and changed my life pretty much overnight. Julie and I have now been together for four years and married for three, are on fire for God and could not be happier. We have two fantastic children and feel incredibly blessed that He has chosen us to serve Him. Life is truly great.
P.S. I write a Christian blog on the Liverpool Echo website, called 'Born Again Blogger' in reference to my baptism last September. Find it at http://bornagainblog.merseyblogs.co.uk/

God's guidance in my life has been great- he took me from London to Mexico to Liverpool and now he's sending me to Brazil for a year! How wonderful it
is to know that God is my loving Father and He wants to use me to tell others about his love.
Graham Webb
The day swearing left me I knew that God had answered my prayer for help.
That was 1980 while I was in Florida on a tennis scholarship.
Everything changed that day. Jesus has been leading me ever since.
More recently God sent me and my family to Liverpool to start 7 churches.
