Mission Statement – To make Christ like Disciples
Our services are design to connect people to Christ producing a vibrant relationship.
Our Services are Contemporary in Method
Creative in Message
Compassionate in Ministry
This is a place where religion dies and relationships are born!
The vision of NVC Naz is to become a surrendered and transformed people, sensitive to the Holy Spirit, who love God and others. To become a community of believers, focused on Christ and not ourselves, who are driven by the reality that this is not about us, rather all about Jesus. To become transfixed by His story and His heart for our city. We are seed-throwers, grace-sowers, fire-starters and hope-builders; risk-takers and dreamers; burden-bearers and prayer-warriors, young and old. Through Christ, we will empower the poor, strengthen the weak, embrace the outcast, and seek the lost. We will serve together, worship together, grow together, play together, and live life together. We link arms with all who follow Jesus. Our world will change because God sent us. We stand united.
Our Core Values
1) Experiencing, celebrating and proclaiming
the love of God through Jesus Christ is the core of all we do!
2) Family is a gift from God that we are to love and disciple--we will
promote family unity in all we do.
3) Our faith in God's love through Jesus Christ compels us to serve with
excellence in all we do to make a difference in our world.
4) Integrity is the heart of our core values--we will use the highest
biblical standards for Christian living in our daily interactions.

Associate Pastor Wayne Keith

Pastor Wayne spent most of his adult life in the
business world. Before becoming a Christian just before his 40th
birthday, he was a corporate pilot and president of a company with
1,200 employees. Through a series of circumstances the Lord humbled
him and for the first time in his life, he could hear the Lord
clearly. Salvation was at hand! Wayne has served in many different ministries, including serving as Associate Pastor in many of South Texas Nazarene churches. He has 5 kids and 8 grandkids that he loves to spoil and send home with their parents. He is young at heart to counteract the crown of white hair which the Lord says denotes wisdom. He loves all people and only wishes to serve them and his Lord |
