Nazareth Baptist Church

About this church

Nazareth Baptist Church in the Bronx gathers for worship on Sunday mornings at 490 East 165th Street. Sunday School begins at 9:30 a.m., and Morning Worship follows at 10:45 a.m. The congregation is Baptist. It traces its start to a mission opened in 1921 and its incorporation to 1923, and it has worshiped in its current building since the 1980s. Special Sundays, such as the church anniversary, Family and Friends Day, and Missionary Annual Day, often add a fellowship lunch and an afternoon service, so first-time visitors should confirm the schedule for a given week on the website.

Beyond Sunday worship, the church runs a Women's Ministry that hosts evening Women In Focus discussion meetups, held in person or over Zoom. Music ministries take part in events such as the Jubilee Concert, and the calendar also includes Men's Day, a youth meet and greet, and Easter and Christmas services. The church describes outreach to the South Bronx that includes food and clothing distribution, community Thanksgiving and "Love Thy Neighbor" dinners, and back-to-school backpack giveaways. The website has a Live Stream page for those who cannot attend in person, a Giving page, and a prayer request form. The Upcoming Events page lists current gatherings and times.
