The church announced in May 2019 that it "will cease to exist and the current National Leadership Team will be stepping down from their roles once the winding up of the central Church has been completed". Members had voted on 26 May 2019, to revoke the Church’s constitution, after a decline in membership to less than 1,000 following claims against its founder and two other then members of the church of historical sexual assault during the 1970s. It is planned that the Jesus Centres charity the church created will continue to operate and that individual churches will become independent congregations. Fewer than 200 people are still living in communal households of the Jesus Fellowship.
