Kilgore First Church of the Nazarene

About this church

Kilgore First Church of the Nazarene follows a Sunday sequence of 9:30 a.m. School and 10:45 worship. The service lasts about an hour and includes music and a pastoral message; open Communion is celebrated once a month. Dress ranges from jeans and T-shirts to traditional Sunday clothing, and newcomers are not expected to give. Parking is available on Martin and Sabine streets, in the lot west of the church, and across the street. Greeters provide a bulletin and directions. Children may stay in the main service, use nursery care through age three, or attend children's church through sixth grade with background-checked, NazSafe-trained volunteers.

The weekly calendar also includes Sunday quiz practice at 5 p.m., a Tuesday men's group at 8:30 a.m., and Wednesday prayer and Kids Club at 6 p.m. As a Nazarene congregation, the church emphasizes Wesleyan holiness, including entire sanctification as a work of grace that forms Christlike love and empowers service. Local and global mission projects are concrete: weekly food donations go to Kilgore Helping Hands, Hiway 80 Rescue Mission receives clothing, food, and teen Christmas gifts, and Operation Christmas Child boxes travel internationally. Other support helps build churches, schools, clinics, and parsonages, sponsor children, send volunteer Work and Witness teams, and encourage missionaries.
