The Wainwright Church of the Nazarene is an active and friendly, inter-generational church family. We are committed to reaching out to, building up and caring for people.
We had our first in person gathering outdoors on September 13 and will be meeting in person every other week with live stream available during the in-person service. The ‘in between’ weeks will continue in the on-line format and you can access the on-line worship service by clicking the link above or going to our YouTube channel.
Sundays @ 10:10 am
People matter at WainNaz! Through these days of we will continue to be here to help build relationships with God and with one another.
Please come back often to find out more about who we are and how you can join in with what’s going on in our church family.
Grace & Peace
As we begin the fall we continue to be in the phase 2 of re-opening within our province. This phase includes guidelines for safely gathering together for places of worship. In keeping with these recommendations we will be implementing practices that will keep us in compliance with the provincial guidelines.
We met in person (September 13th) and will continue with in-person worship services every two weeks. We will have full online services on the ‘off’ weeks when we are not gathered together and we will be live streaming the in-person Worship services beginning on September 27th.
Let’s continue with the following practices;
- There are a variety of resources available for you for home devotions, worship and study. During these days, it is important to take time to worship and seek God’s direction. Here are a couple of good daily devotional links for you to try:
- Our Daily Bread
- Please remember to spend time in prayer for our world and one another. We will continue to send out our mid-week church prayer update and also encourage you to participate in our daily prayer challenge. You can find the prayer challenge booklet here on our website to your left under People who Pray.
- Continue to give tithes and offerings to God. Giving is an act of worship and as we are tempted to hold back for ourselves during these uncertain days, when we give to God we acknowledge that we ultimately find our sustenance and provision in him, tangibly trusting in God during the uncertain days we face. You can drop your tithe off at the church office during weekdays or you may choose to e-transfer your tithe to the following address:
If you e-transfer please indicate in the message who is giving the e-transfer and use the password tithe
Please call or email the church if you have questions regarding giving.
- We encourage families to go to the Children’s ministry tab for weekly Sunday School materials to use with your families at home. These resources can be printed and brought with you to the in-person worship services as we will not be having in-person Children’s Ministry until further notice.
- Pray for one another.
- Take some time to call your neighbours and be a calming voice and peaceful presence. Especially think of the elderly and shut in population who may feel even more isolated these days.
- Help deliver groceries to those who are vulnerable or who can’t get out. Contact the church if you would be available to help or if you are in need of some assistance in this area.
- Consider a Wainwright Food Bank donation this week. Remember that there are many people dealing with employment disruptions due to containment efforts and who will be needing to access community resources such as the food bank.
