About MJM
Mount Jubilee Ministries was established in 2005 in response to a defined interest from parents to provide a residential summer camp for youth within the IDD population in the Piedmont Triad area of North Carolina. As a result of the passionate commitment of the core group of founders, Camp Jubilee hosted its first week of camp in the summer of 2005 with five campers and six volunteers. Over the past 16 years, more than 200 special friends, ranging in ages from 10 to 65, have participated in this exceptional summer camp experience.
Keenly aware of the shortage of government funding and the enormous need for year-round day programming, MJM launched His Path Developmental Day Program in December of 2019. The need for post high school activities for the IDD community in Rockingham County, NC finds over 100 individuals on a 10 year wait list for medicaid services. The success of this program initiative (even through the pandemic) led MJM to explore opportunities to expand into adjoining counties. In the summer of 2021, we proudly launched our 2nd day program in Forsyth County, NC. Currently we have 14 adults with IDD enrolled in each of the day programs. We are determined to continue expanding day programs throughout the Piedmont Triad.
The goal of MJM is to continue partnering with this unique population by offering more than just a summer camp and day programs. It is our focus to begin expanding our opportunities to include more day programs, participant volunteer opportunities, supported employment and respite care. The vision of MJM is to develop an inclusive residential community where special friends can continue to learn, work, and live as they are celebrated and empowered through their God-ordained abilities.

When I heard MJM was looking for someone to do their marketing, with it fresh in my mind, I thought to myself, “I could do that.” It is incredible to see the way God has orchestrated the growth of MJM and every day that I work here I see God in new ways, working for His people, and it inspires me to be better.”
Natalie has an associate’s degree in Electronics Engineering Technology and will graduate with her Bachelor of Science in the Spring of 2023. She will continue her education with plans to achieve a Second bachelor’s degree in Biblical Counseling with a concentration in Abuse/Trauma counseling.

What We Believe
1. The Bible is the inspired Word of God, inerrant in its original manuscripts and the final authority in all matters of faith and practice. (II Timothy 3:16 & 17)
2. There is one God, eternally co-existing in three distinct persons: Father, Son and Holy Spirit. (I Peter 1:2)
3. The Lord Jesus Christ is fully God and became fully man. Through His virgin birth, by His death and resurrection, the Lord Jesus Christ made salvation a free gift to all who receive Him. (John 3:16 & 36; Ephesians 2:8 & 9)
4. Each member of the human race is created in the image of God, but falls short of God’s glorious standard, sinful and lost. Regeneration by the Holy Spirit is absolutely essential for the salvation of each individual. Redemption is wholly by the blood of Christ, and salvation is by grace, through faith in our Lord Jesus Christ. (Romans 3:10-30)
5. God created and maintains all things by His sovereign power. (Colossians 1:15-17)
6. The Church of our Lord Jesus Christ is composed of all true believers in the Lord Jesus Christ. True believers have assurance of eternal life and the power of the Holy Spirit to live righteous lives. (John 10: 27-29; Galatians 5:16-18)
7. The blessed hope of the Church is the personal and imminent return of the Lord: the saved to enjoy eternal bliss and the unsaved to experience eternal and conscious punishment. (Revelation 20:11-15)
