ABOUT US
Our History
Jubilee Christian Church was founded by Bishop Gideon Thompson and his wife, Pastor Yvonne Thompson, almost 40 years ago when they felt the call of the Lord to the New England area. Together, they went on to build a spirit-filled ministry that started off as a few dozen people in a hotel ballroom which is now a flourishing, international ministry based out of a converted supermarket on Blue Hill Avenue. Today, Jubilee is led by Senior Pastors Matthew and Mona Thompson, a couple that is committed to building a "Church Without Walls" through preaching, teaching, and service to the community. Together, they oversee 3 locations: Boston, Stoughton and Worcester.
