Our Mission

Northcliffe Students exists to lead students to LOVE God personally, LIVE life purposefully and to SERVE others passionately.
Our student ministry is made up of 6th – 12th-grade students from multiple counties. We have many opportunities to help you grow in your relationship with God and others including Life Groups (small groups), student worship services, concerts, camps, retreats, mission trips, and many other events throughout the year.
If you have questions regarding Northcliffe Students, e-mail  braydon@northcliffe.church or call the church office at 352-683-5882.

Students on the Student Leadership team will receive extra training, discipleship, and mentoring while also being given responsibility in our ministry by serving and leading in different ways.

For Parents

Many parents see the teenage years as something to simply survive. Many say, “If I can just get my child through the next few years, my life will go back to normal.” It seems like when our children reach the age of 12 an alien comes down and sucks their sweet, innocent little brain out and replaces it with an anti-Christ-like brain!

At Northcliffe, we believe the teenage years aren’t something to simply “survive.” We believe it is the age of opportunity. Your children will grow more spiritually during their teenage years than at any other time in their lives. It is the age when most students come to know the Lord and the age when most students walk away from God and never look back. We want to help parents during these critical years. We’ve included links to some great information for parents.
