Our vision

To lead people to salvation and teach the truth

Our church’s vision is to lead people to salvation and teach the truth, while sharing God’s love, compassion and hope with everyone.

Whoever you are, wherever you live and whatever you face, there is a place for you here.

Who we are

A small congregation in the town where Jesus grew up

There are approximately 225,000 to 230,000 Christians living across Israel and the Palestinian territories. They are some of the oldest Christian communities in the world.

Christians here are a minority of the minority. Yet our faith calls us to care for everyone, no matter where they live or what they face.

We are a growing congregation, and for now we gather in the pastor’s basement, because we do not yet have a church building of our own.

Love in action · Bethlehem

A gift. A smile. A reminder they are loved.

At Christmas, we had the privilege of visiting an orphanage in Bethlehem, the birthplace of Jesus, to bring joy, love, and hope to orphaned children and children with disabilities.

We brought Christmas gifts, spent time together, and shared smiles, reminding the children that they are loved and never forgotten. Celebrating with them in the very place where Jesus was born made the visit especially meaningful.

For a child facing difficult times, a simple gift can bring a smile, warmth, and hope. But our care does not end with one visit. We want to do more.

The new church

We are building a home for our community

Alongside caring for families today, we have a dream for our growing Christian community: a new church in Nazareth where people can worship, pray, gather and find a place of hope and belonging.
