Bishop is always willing to encourage and assist other leaders by pouring into their ministries with all that God has given to him to help catapult their ministries to the next level. Bishop planted The Jubilee Church and God has definitely exceeded his expectations simply because he allowed the Lord to lead and guide him through every valley and every victory.
The Jubilee Church completed a 3.2 million dollar worship facility under Bishop Drake’s leadership in 2023 and Bishop has shared that God is going to expand our territory in a greater capacity in this next season of ministry and we will allow him to use the people of God as we watch him do it!

Romans 8:28
“And we know all things work together for the good of them that love God, to them that are called according to his purpose.”
