serve local
Our Serve Ministry exists to intentionally release Beach Church to advance God’s Kingdom by serving others with love. With serving as one of our 5 Pursuits, we desire to show our love for Jesus by loving the people of our community well. This means intentionally partnering with people and organizations in our community to create space for you to step off the sideline of faith and step into the greater things God has for you.
Meet our Local Partners
Our local partners often have great opportunities for you or your Life Group to get involved in serving the community. Beach Church is committed to support these local partners and empower them to continue to provide care for our neighbors around the beaches.
Mission House
Jacksonville Beach’s only day center offering full-service support for individuals facing homelessness. They prioritize dignity in every interaction—whether through a warm meal, medical care, or a conversation that brings comfort. Mission House empowers and compassionately supports our neighbors in need, both today and toward stable, healthy, and self-sufficient lives. Learn how to serve with Mission House here!
BEAM
A community-based organization serving low-income residents in Jacksonville’s Beaches communities, drawing heavily on strong community support to assist our neighbors in times of need. They envision a future in which no Beaches resident goes hungry or is haunted by the fear of eviction. Learn how to serve with BEAM here!
Hart Felt Ministries
Hart Felt Ministries exists to honor God by enriching the lives of seniors and enabling them to age in place with dignity and grace. Their vision is to see community in which all seniors have access to the resources they need to age in place.
