Faith Promise Sunday
On Sunday, May 18, the PazNaz English congregation will celebrate Nazarene Missions with a special Faith Promise emphasis during the 9:30 am worship service. Our guest speakers will be retired medical missionaries Dr. Bill and Marsha McCoy, who served in Papua New Guinea for over 25 years.
Faith Promise gifts received will be used to complete our annual commitments to the Nazarene World Evangelism Fund. Additional funds will be used for PazNaz global mission initiatives such as Work and Witness projects, emergency needs in world areas, and bringing Nazarene missionaries to PazNaz to share what God is doing around the world.

Gratefully,

Joe and Joan Watkins

Leaning into Resurrection
Led by Dr. Walker Railey | Reed Hall, 248
On Easter Sunday we proclaim, Christ is Risen. Hallelujah! But on Monday after Easter, the world appears the same as it was prior to Easter. So, what’s the big deal about Christ’s Resurrection? The early believers lived in a world that doubted a dead man actually walked out of the tomb. The world we live in has those same questions. So what’s the truth about resurrection? The more we lean into Christ’s Resurrection then, the more abundantly we live on the face of this earth now.
