Why University Christian?
University Christian is more than a school. We are family!
We Are Focused On Excellence!
Intentional relationships that are built within a smaller community of students help to narrow the focus on spiritual growth and accountability with one another. Small groups are more intimate groups leading to discussions that are more relative to the age and situations of the students meeting. This is an opportunity for Bible study, prayer and personal discussion of life challenges and issues while being mentored by adult leadership and direction.
We are on a mission!
University Christian students are given multiple opportunities to participate in outreach throughout the local Jacksonville community. UCS has clubs and class sponsored events that work with organizations such as the Corner Pantry, Night to Shine Jax, The Buddy Program with North Florida School of Special Education, Re-Threaded, Jacksonville Baptist Children’s Home, Fosters Closet, Pine Castle, Palm Gardens and many more
We Are Built On Tradition
UCS has two organized mission trips for our students. The first is specifically designed for our sophomore class, who travel to Mexico City and serve with one of the sending missionaries from University Church. While in Mexico, students will assist with projects in their Christian school, United Capital School, the local Manna Feeding Centers and camps for local inner-city young children. The second trip is for the senior class, who has traveled to multiple countries working with Filter of Hope and sharing clean water with poverty-stricken families. Their trips have consisted of traveling to the Dominican Republic, Costa Rica, Belize, and Hawaii. While missions travel is limited specifically to these two grades, students from all grades at UCS are able to participate and play a role in the work conducted by gathering items and supplies for the individuals we will be serving.
