At JFM we are working together to make everyday disciples that love God and love others.
Jackson Free Methodist is a place where people can meet Jesus and engage in life-giving community. We believe in creating a space where people can have authentic encounters with Christ, discover their gifts, and use them for God's glory. Our purpose is helping people take their right next step in their relationship with Jesus. We strive to create a community that is moving forward, showing the grace of Jesus in our neighborhoods and around the world.
AT JFM WE ARE ALL ABOUT MAKING EVERYDAY DISCIPLES THAT LOVE GOD AND LOVE OTHERS. WE HOPE TO CREATE A COMMUNITY THAT WANTS TO MOVE FORWARD, PUSHING OUR WORLD TOWARDS GOD'S KINGDOM.
