Compassionate Ministries

WHAT IS NAZARENE COMPASSIONATE MINISTRIES?

Local churches are the primary avenue for Nazarenes to reach out to those in their communities. Nazarene Compassionate Ministries seeks to support churches in starting and maintaining ministry to the under-served and marginalized. We believe every church, no matter size or budget, can find ways to meet needs in their community with compassion, creativity, and the life-changing power of the Gospel.

In the United States and Canada, Nazarene Compassionate Ministries works closely with local churches, Nazarene Missions Teams, Nazarene Disaster Response, and Compassionate Ministry Centers to bring compassion and healing to communities in need with the love and presence of Christ.
