Our Mission

   To mobilize the church in mission through prayer, education, giving and interactive experience. 

Objectives

    The Church of the Nazarene began in 1908 committing our resources to reaching our world for Jesus Christ. We realize that this is done locally, as well as globally. Our responsibility is to our neighbor, as well as to those in another country.

          The Fawn Grove Church of the Nazarene has been involved in exciting missionary work. Teams from our church have invested their skills, talents, and abilities in the challenge of missions through Work & Witness assignments. In September 2001 a team from our church went to the Lamb’s Church of the Nazarene in Manhattan after the terrible 911 tragedy to assist them with getting space ready to house local firemen and disaster response workers. Our team cleaned, scrubbed and painted nine rooms, five bathrooms and one good-sized kitchenette. It took a lot of elbow grease, but our team said they felt richly rewarded and thanked the Lord for this great privilege. In early October 2001 we had the privilege of sending a team of eight men to El Salvador on a Work & Witness mission to build a house to help people who had been left homeless since the big earthquake last January. As a result of this trip, our team accomplished much by working for God and He provided for them. We look forward to sharing more Work & Witness highlights in the future!

          We believe that God calls those whom He uses to serve as missionaries. A missionary is sent by the church to share the good news of Jesus Christ cross-culturally. The Church of the Nazarene desires to help those who experience God’s call to become missionaries.
