Jacksonville Campus MinistryJacksonville Campus Ministry (JCM) was founded in 1972 by a coalition of churches and judicatories of six denominations — Christian (Disciples of Christ), Episcopal, Lutheran (ELCA), Presbyterian (PCUSA), United Church of Christ, and United Methodist. JaxCM's original mission was to serve all Jacksonville campuses. Now JCM is as an ecumenical ministry serving the University of North Florida and Jacksonville University. Throughout the years, the ministry has expanded and contracted with the ebb and flow of students and volunteers.
