CPC is committed to serving our homeless neighbors through multiple ministries. We are grateful to work with Mission House and Beaches Homeless Coalition to help meet the needs of the homeless community at the Jacksonville Beaches. For more information, please contact E.K.

Cold Weather Shelter – CPC is a primary host for Cold Weather Shelters at the Jacksonville Beaches. When the temperature drops below 40 degrees, we coordinate with Mission House to provide a dinner, a warm place to sleep, and breakfast/bag lunches to our guests. We also typically provide showers, clothing, and toiletries. We always provide God’s love and dignity to our less fortunate neighbors.

Compassion Nights – Based upon our belief that compassion to our homeless neighbors should not be limited to adverse weather, CPC established “Compassion Nights.” These are scheduled evenings with good food, entertainment, games, showers, clothing, haircuts, and other support services. Our members and volunteers participate with our guests in all activities, creating bonds and sharing love and dignity to our fellow children of God.

Mission House – CPC is a financial supporter of Mission House and has multiple groups of volunteers who make meals and otherwise support the wonderful work of Mission House’s homeless services.

Beaches Homeless Coalition – Beaches Homeless Coalition is a nonprofit focused on supporting the various homeless ministries and services at the Jacksonville Beaches. Many of our members volunteer through Beaches Homeless Coalition to support homeless ministries and services at the beaches even when those events are not sponsored by CPC. We are grateful to have been recognized by Beaches Homeless Coalition as its foundational faith partner.
