In the late 1800's the Church of the Nazarene was born. God blessed and the Church exploded in growth. Today we are over 1.5 million people strong ministering in over 150 world areas.

The story of the Church of the Nazarene in New Lothrop is the story of the leading of the Holy Spirit and the surrendered-to-God lives of its people.

As the church grew there were moves into rented facilities followed by the first church building on Orchard Street and then on November 26, 1978, the dedication of the present site on Saginaw Street. The Community Life Center was added to the campus in 2003 and God continues to bless the ministry of His people.

Today we are experiencing God's presence and blessings like never before, growing spiritually and numerically for 12 consecutive years. To God be all the glory. And our story continues. We believe the greatest days of impact are before us. As the Spirit leads and His people continue to live surrendered lives, the Great Commission will be lived out in this generation.
