June 24-July 2, 2012
Our student Work and Witness team (28 people: 20 students - 10 boys, 10 girls- most in HS, a few college, and 8 adults) will be in partnership with the church in Acequia. This is a site Pastor Dave, Roger Schmidt and Bill King visited when they travelled to Honduras last year. Please be in prayer for this group as they prepare for this life-changing trip.

World Mission Broadcast, a ministry of the Nazarene Church
On the air since 1951, World Mission Broadcast exists to reach beyond borders and barriers to share the light of Jesus in the dark corners of this world. You can follow stories of those finding Jesus through the spoken Word via the airwaves on Facebook (www.facebook.com/WMBroadcast) or Twitter (http://twitter.com/WMBroadcast). This is just one of the many ways the Church of the Nazarene is spreading the good news of Jesus Christ. It only costs $4 per minute to broadcast from one of many stations around the world through radio, television and internet programs. If you would like to give an offering to World Mission Broadcast, just click the “Give/Serve” button at the top of this page. Be sure to indicate that your gift is for “World Mission Broadcast.” Thank you!

Child Sponsorship
Nazarene Compassion Ministries Child Sponsorship program exists to advocate for children who are destitute. Following the instruction of Jesus, NCM partners with local Nazarene congregations around the world to clothe, shelter, feed, heal, educate, and live in solidarity with those who suffer under oppression, injustice, violence, poverty, hunger, and disease. By sponsoring a child we:
Provide a tangible expression of Jesus Christ’s love
Facilitate a personal relationship between sponsors and children
Equip children to use their God-given gifts within their families and communities while embracing Christ’s mandate to live a life of love and compassion
What does it cost to be a ChildSponsor? The financial cost of Child Sponsorship is just $25 a month. It's easy! For $25 a month, just 82 cents a day, (that’s just a soda a day, a latte a week, a shirt a month, or a 30GB iPod a year) you have the opportunity to feed, clothe, and educate a child in need. While building a loving and encouraging relationship through letters, your monthly participation gives a child a chance at a better future.
Look for a representative at the Welcome Center in the lobby where you can choose a child and begin blessing them by becoming a sponsor.
