We are a Christian Community made up of a variety of believers of different ages and backgrounds. We resemble a patchwork quilt of many fabrics sewn together by God’s love and grace. Since 1948, we have endeavored to bring Christ’s life saving message to Richland through prayer, genuine relationships and sacrificial service.

We are a Biblical People - Our core beliefs and practices are rooted in the Holy Scriptures.

 

We are a Loving People - Our name, Nazarene, is tied to Christ’s childhood roots in Nazareth, a town linked to outsiders and people on the fringe. Just as Jesus sought out the hurting, so our doors are open to ALL who seek God’s love, healing and hope.

 

We are a Praying People - Private and corporate prayer guides are who we are and all we do. Weekly prayer gatherings lift up praises and requests on behalf of our homes, church, community and world.

 

We are a Spirit-Dependent People - We emphasize the utmost importance of being saved by faith in Jesus Christ AND being filled with the Holy Spirit. Through the power of the Holy Spirit, we are enabled to love unconditionally and follow Christ wholeheartedly.

 

We are a Holiness People - We are affiliated with the Church of the Nazarene a century old evangelical denomination that grew out of a profound revival in the United States. Nazarenes stress the daily need for heart purity, global missions, compassionate ministries and men and women using their gifts to their fullest potential for God.
