NYC Sunday

Sunday, July 13, 2023

Join us on Sunday, July 13, 2023 at 10:00am for Summer Sunday Breakfast & 10:45 am for worship as our students share reflections, videos, & photos of our experience and participation in Nazarene Youth Conference 2023! You DO NOT want to miss this Sunday to hear about the Holy Spirit working in the lives of our young people and the 10,000 other we joined in Tampa Bay, Florida! I truly was in awe of God’s moving and touching the lives of each one… NYC to me was exhaustingly refreshing. Is that a thing?

Youth Bonfire | Thu, July 13

Nikiski Naz youth are joining up with Soldotna Naz youth for an evening of fun together on the beach!! Hope to see you, middle school/high school students! 6:00pm at the Evoy house (address in attached graphic).

Current Series

Our annual theme is Love the Lord your God with all your heart, soul, mind, and strength. Mindfull is our current series diving into Loving God with all our MIND.

Scriptures: Luke 10:27, Deuteronomy 6:5

Stewardship Update

A call to faithful stewardship is a consistent theme that God gives God’s people, both in the Old Testament and New Testament. At Nikiski Nazarene Church, our ministry in our community, our area, and around the world is supported solely by people partnering directly with our local church. We are “God’s stewards of both life and possessions (resources)” (read more + Scriptures, or even more).

We wholly agree with:

  • 2 Corinthians 9:6 “But this I say: He who sows sparingly will also reap sparingly, and he who sows bountifully will also reap bountifully. 7So let each one give as he purposes in his heart, not grudgingly or of necessity; for God loves a cheerful giver. 8And God is able to make all grace abound toward you, that you, always having all sufficiency in all things, may have an abundance for every good work.”

The church leadership of Nikiski Naz are praying that God moves the hearts, minds, and action of people who worship with us and who are discipled alongside one another to give cheerfully to our mission in this community. 

God is faithful and moving! We are anticipating that God continues to transform our lives into deer and deeper generosity & stewardship as we seek the leading of the Holy Spirit in our community engagement & church’s ministries.
