Welcome to this house of worship. We hope our greetings will convey the pleasure we feel in having you visit us. Although you are a visitor, don't feel as a stranger, for you are among God's people. May every aspect of our service bless and encourage you.

If you wish, bow your head in silent prayer for those who minister and for your fellow worshipers. Ask God to prepare your own heart to receive a touch from Him.

Join the the congregational singing. We hope that the selections will be familiar. We highly regard the old, standard devotional hymns, but we also enjoy the more modern, spirited gospel songs of praise and testimony. We believe that joy and praise are always appropriate in the house of the Lord.

Unite your prayer with ours. Our public prayers are informal and extemporaneous and usually expressed with unmistakable earnestness. Sometimes we kneel or we may stand. Whatever the posture, we approach our Heavenly Father with reverence and expectancy and address our prayers in the name of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ.

When the offering plate is passed, do not be embarrassed if you are not prepared to participate or if you have obligations elsewhere.

When the minister stands before you to deliver today's message, you may be sure that he or she has prayed earnestly before coming to the pulpit. Our pastor is committed to ask for God's guidance in each aspect of the service.

The Church of the Nazarene is evangelical in doctrine and evangelistic in practice. We believe the Bible to the the inspired Word of God, the Foundation of Christian faith, and the Guide to devout, God-fearing living. We believe in revivals, in preaching repentance and urging men and women to forsake sin and seek God for forgiveness and cleansing.

"The Lord bless thee, and keep thee: the Lord make his face shine upon thee, and be gracious unto thee: the Lord lift up his countenance upon thee, and give thee peace" (Numbers 6:24-26)
