Reaching students by connecting them to God and one another, and challenging them to grow to maturity in Christ is the drive behind everything we do in Northland at Longwood's student ministries. High school students are challenged to “Make Kingdom Noise” by acting out the call Christ gives us of loving one another and spreading the Word. Students are always encouraged to bring friends!

local serve projects and venture out far and wide to places like Mississippi, Jamaica, Egypt, the Ukraine, and Africa for summer short-term mission trips to see and be a small part of the work God is doing all over the world. For information on these trips, please head to
