For our families with children

If you have children, we have several offerings for all ages.

On Sunday mornings, volunteers are available in the nursery for children up to age 3. A room is available for nursing mothers, too. Both rooms are located next to the Sanctuary near the west entrance.

Children ages 3-5 who are potty-trained can attend Wee Worship in the northeast classroom. Wee Worship offers playtime and learning activities.

Children in school up to age 12 can attend Children's Church. Children's Church offers lessons that reinforce Biblical values and principles. Children's Church is in the room next to the Library.

Once a month, we have a Family Sunday when children stay in the sanctuary with their family.

Faith Promise Sunday

Dear Church Family,

We are rejoicing at your heart and your generosity for Nazarene World Missions.  You made it clear once again through your Faith Promises last Sunday that Brazil Church of the Nazarene continues to care deeply about making disciples for Christ everywhere.  Currently we have promised, through faith, to give $9,512 between now and July of 2025.  There are more giving forms to come in, so we’re not finished yet!!  To God be the glory!!  There are additional forms on the Welcome Center for anyone wanting to be a part of Faith Promise.  

Singh Baby Shower

We are having a baby shower for Jeet and Stacey (Nance) Singh this Sunday, July 14 from 12-2pm in the family center. The happy couple have decided to wait until the baby is born to find out its gender.

Sermon Notes

"Victory Over Sin"

Scripture: Deuteronomy 7:1-8

1 "When the Lord your God brings you into the land which you go to possess, and has cast out many nations before you, the Hittites and the Girgashites and the Amorites and the Canaanites and the Perizzites and the Hivites and the Jebusites, seven nations greater and mightier than you, 2 and when the Lord your God delivers them over to you, you shall conquer them and utterly destroy them. You shall make no covenant with them nor show mercy to them. 3 Nor shall you make marriages with them. You shall not give your daughter to their son, nor take their daughter for your son. 4 For they will turn your sons away from following Me, to serve other gods; so the anger of the Lord will be aroused against you and destroy you suddenly. 5 But thus you shall deal with them: you shall destroy their altars, and break down their sacred pillars, and cut down their wooden images, and burn their carved images with fire.

6 "For you are a holy people to the Lord your God; the Lord your God has chosen you to be a people for Himself, a special treasure above all the peoples on the face of the earth. 7 The Lord did not set His love on you nor choose you because you were more in number than any other people, for you were the least of all peoples; 8 but because the Lord loves you, and because He would keep the oath which He swore to your fathers, the Lord has brought you out with a mighty hand, and redeemed you from the house of bondage, from the hand of Pharaoh king of Egypt.
