In 1993 alongside her husband Ian, Julie plated what was New horizons Church, Dewsbury (now 'Vision Church'). They started out in their very own living room, faithfully serving the needs of the local community, loving the broken and reaching out to those in need. However it wasn't until 2001 after a life changing encounter with God that Julie joined her husband in full time ministry. Since then it has been Julie's passion to raise up disciples and build the kingdom of God. With a mother's heart and courageous spirit she is devoted to seeing the church empowered, healed, equipped and set free from fear.
