Global Outreach
From Hurricane relief, to addressing food insecurities to caring for vulnerable women and children and providing parents a dignified way to provide Christmas for their children, Christ’s Church has been at the forefront of meeting needs and loving others for 50 years.
This year we plan on reaching a whole nation for Christ!
Awaken Spain is a major prayer movement. Spain is the only European country that has not experienced revival. Among its 8500 cities, more than 7500 have no church. Awaken Spain seeks to cover all 17 regions of Spain in prayer, laying the groundwork for planting 1,700 churches in the next 10 years.
“…go and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit. Teach these new disciples to obey all commands I have given you.”
Matthew 28:19-20
22% of our ministry budget goes toward Outreach.
Christ’s Church has helped plant churches on 6 continents and we currently work with 8 global partners.
We partner with 50 local and community organizations in the Northeast Florida area.
local Outreach
What happens when Jesus’ people assume the role of gathering the government, education, not-for-profit and private sectors together to solve a city’s biggest issues? Things get done! Problems are eased and Jesus is recognized. This is the power of collaboration. Our most enduring contribution to our communities has been our ability to get people in the room to talk and act. Impact Clay, in Clay County and Transformation Jax in Duval County, are just two collaborations where the Christ’s Church has a seat of influence.
“…Healthy people don’t need a doctor—sick people do. I have come to call not those who think they are righteous, but those who know they are sinners.”
Mark 2:17
Prison Ministry
Founded in 2016, our Prison Ministry is an example of a successful partnership between God’s people and government agencies. Utilizing the Emmaus correspondence program, inmates complete in-depth Bible Studies that include graded evaluations. These are returned to the ministry for feedback and encouragement from volunteers. We also hold services on site at several locations.
