Nazarene Essentials training expands to South America Region

by | 26 Jun 2015

The Church of the Nazarene South America Region presented Nazarene Essentials this month as a tool for the local church to identify the essential characteristics that allow it to develop as a church that lives out the Great Commission and transforms its community.

Nazarene Essentials is based on the seven Nazarene characteristics: meaningful worship, theological coherence, intentional discipleship, passionate evangelism, transformational leadership, church development, and purposeful compassion.

Through a series of statements, Nazarene Essentials guides the pastor and congregation leaders to identify the development of each Nazarene characteristic in the local ministry context.

Pastors, district superintendents, missionaries, and regional ministry coordinators participated in the creative process of this tool. The seven characteristics were presented by the denomination's general superintendents during the 2013 General Assembly to promote who we are and what we believe as Nazarenes.

Pastors and leaders are invited to be part of Nazarene Essentials and to share this tool. To learn more about this initiative, visit nazarene.org/essentials in English or fundamentosnazarenos.org in Spanish and Portuguese.
