Baby Day
Each year, the Church of the Nazarene encourages denomination-wide participation in a special day just for babies and their parents! Traditionally, this takes place on the first Sunday in May.

Children's Day
Children's Day for 2011 will be August 28. Children's Ministries International encourages all local churches to set aside a day to celebrate children and their importance in the Church.

Promotion Day will vary in some churches. Children’s Ministries International recommends the last Sunday in August as the day to promote. However, since schools are starting earlier in August, churches may adjust Promotion Sunday to follow the starting date of local schools.

Family Day is the Sunday before Thanksgiving, when it is natural for families to come together for celebration and thanking God.
