4th Annual Summer Day Camp for 5-12 year olds! Campers participated in music, arts, dance, and recreational activities in a Gospel-centered environment!

Three college groups came to Jacksonville and served with 2nd Mile for their spring breaks. They spent numerous hours volunteering in local schools, cleaning up streets and empty lots, working in a community garden, and helping tutor at after-school programs. Thank you to everyone who came from Northwestern College in Iowa, Clemson Navigators in South Carolina, and Blackhawk college-age ministry in Wisconsin!
