THE CHURCH OF THE NAZARENE

LovingtonNaz is a member of the Church of the Nazarene. The mission of the Church of the Nazarene is to make Christlike disciples in the nations.

We are a Great Commission church (Matthew 28:19-20). As a global community of faith, we are commissioned to take the Good News of life in Jesus Christ to people everywhere and to spread the message of scriptural holiness (Christlike living) across the lands.

The Church of the Nazarene bonds together individuals who have made Jesus Christ Lord of their lives, sharing in Christian fellowship, and seeking to strengthen each other in faith development through worship, preaching, training, and service to others.

We strive to express the compassion of Jesus Christ to all persons along with our personal commitment to Christlike living.

While the primary motive of the church is to glorify God, we also are called to actively participate in His mission—reconciling the world to himself.

The statement of mission contains historical essentials of our mission: evangelism, sanctification, discipleship, compassion. The essence of holiness is Christlikeness.

Nazarenes are becoming a sent people—into homes, work places, communities, and villages as well as other cities and countries. Missionaries are now sent from all regions of the world. God continues calling ordinary people to do extraordinary things made possible by the person of the Holy Spirit.

Organized in 1908, the Church of the Nazarene is now home to about 2.5 million members worshipping in more than 30,000 congregations in 162 world areas. 

A full description of what it means to be a Nazarene can be found here.

Our local church in Lovington was founded in 1928 and has grown and changed quite a bit.  We are a church that finds its roots in the holiness movement that simply believes God wants to bring God's kingdom here and now in our real lives.  Theologically, we stand with the Church across the world in believing God is Trinity - Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.  We believe God's ultimate revelation is in the person of Jesus and is a God who LOVES and welcomes all!  We believe God is on a mission to make all things right and calls the church to join Him!

We desire that all people come into a saving relationship with Jesus and that all people join in God's work!

We hope that YOU will join us!
