East Side Church of the Nazarene

About this church

Eastside Church of the Nazarene in Des Moines begins Sunday classes at 9:30 a.m. and its main Celebration service at 10:45. Worship typically lasts about an hour and blends hymns with contemporary music, prayer, giving, and Bible teaching. The congregation describes its mission as helping people enter relationship with Jesus, develop as Christlike disciples, and engage the world with practical difference-making.

Journey classes are available for adults and youth at 9:30, while children's programming includes Kidz Church during the Sunday morning schedule. Wednesday from 6:30 to 7:45 p.m. brings parallel options: 412 Youth, Kidz Zone, and adult Speak Life groups. The church's first-visit page is unusually practical, explaining the service sequence so newcomers know what will happen after they enter. A food pantry, livestream, sermon archive, and community-life ministries extend the church's reach beyond the sanctuary. Families can arrive for the 9:30 education hour or come closer to 10:45 for worship; current announcements should be checked for holiday changes.
