A quiet lady in her 60s and one of the older members at Jesus Club Lower Mountains, Jill liked to sit with the leaders at meetings. Although she didn't join in too many games, she enjoyed singing, doing Buddysheets and crafts, and listening to the Bible talks. 

Jill started coming to Jesus Club after being invited by Dallas, a leader at Jesus Club. Dallas lived about ten houses away from Jill and often saw her mum and her walking their dog in the neighbourhood. When Lower Mountains Anglican Church started their local Jesus Club two years ago, she immediately invited Jill to go along. To her delight, Jill accepted and has been going ever since. 

Up until early this year, Jill lived a very sheltered life. She spent her days at workshops and then went home to her loving home and supportive mum in the evenings. But life took a traumatic turn when her mum broke her tailbone in a fall and became too frail to look after herself and Jill. The family had no choice but to admit mum into a nursing home and Jill into a group home about 15 minutes away. 

Dallas recalled how despondent Jill felt when they packed up their home and reorganised their lives. Jill could only take a small selection of treasured objects with her, leaving behind many of her precious china dolls.
