Alabaster Offering

What is Alabaster?

What is Alabaster? The Alabaster Offering provides funds for property and buildings around the world. While we understand the church consists of the people of God and not a building, buildings erected for the purpose of ministry help provide a sense of permanence, functionally enhance ministry efforts, and convey an attitude that the Church of the Nazarene intends to “put down roots.”

Alabaster funds are used to provide places where people worship, heal, learn, and missionaries live.

How are Alabaster offerings received?

The Alabaster Offering gets to the mission field via several avenues. The most widely used is the Alabaster Box. Individuals are challenged to regularly contribute the cost of items they desire but do not need. The boxes also serve as reminders to pray for those people who will benefit from Alabaster buildings.

Traditionally, Alabaster funds are received in September and February. Many churches receive regular offerings throughout the year that are designated as Alabaster funds.
