What is LOVEjax100?

LOVEjax100 is designed to promote prayer walking as a positive and powerful step into the First Coast mission field. The challenge to prayer walk 100 miles that is being promoted in conjunction with the LOVEjax Send Relief Tour scheduled for Jacksonville, September 16-17, 2022. We are making intercession on location as we pray in the streets asking God to move in the homes, schools, businesses, and recreational facilities in our neighborhoods.

Prayer is vital in preparing for mission. We are asking God to hear our prayers and show Himself strong on our behalf (2 Chronicles 16:9). Prayer walking is a very valuable on-ramp into the mission field. The goal is to get as many people as possible prayer walking the streets and communities of the First Coast in preparation for the Serve Tour. This type of community engagement is a valuable tool to help us see our mission field like Jesus does and develop a heart that is passionate for those who are harassed and helpless (Matthew 9:36).

Frequently Asked Questions

Where can I walk?

Participants are encouraged to walk anywhere in the Greater Jacksonville area. The Send Relief Tour focuses upon the zones within the I-295 corridor, but the LOVEjax100 focuses inside and outside this corridor. Participants are encouraged to strategically walk areas near their home, work, or other environments they visit often. We are inviting the Spirit of God to impact our region, not just our city.

What if I don’t want to shoot for 100 miles? Are there challenge options?

When you register, you will be able to choose between four distance options—100, 75, 50, or 25 miles. The shorter distances are also attainable for families. This practice enables families and churches to introduce prayer walking to future generations. The possibilities are beyond our imagination.
