Summer Opportunity

JAX SUMMER TRAINING PROGRAM

Each summer, the Navigators Collegiate Ministries provide multiple intensive summer growth initiatives called Summer Training Programs (STPs) in different regions of the country. Students live, work, have fun, and learn with other college students for the summer.

 

​Each student works a full time job and participates in Bible studies, evangelistic outreaches, discipleship groups, ministry training, fellowship, and other activities during the week. These opportunities for fellowship, mentoring, guided experiences, and time in the Word create an ideal environment for students to grow in their relationship with Christ as well as develop ministry skills and leadership qualities. Summer Training Programs are operated and overseen by experienced full-time Navigator staff.

Meet our Guest Speaker

Jared Parsons

Jared served as the campus director for The Navigators at NYU Tandon in Brooklyn, New York for 5 years. He restarted a campus ministry there that has flourished and seen students come to faith, grow in discipleship, and be developed as leaders. Also during that time, Jared served as a teaching pastor at New City Church in Queens, New York, and brought a unique balance of wit and Biblical understanding to the texts that he taught. He felt the call of God to switch roles and move into the lead pastor role of his church in 2023. He has been leading the church with his wife, Jana. They have been married for almost thirteen years and have a two-year-old son, Oliver.
