Baraboo Church of the Nazarene

About this church

Baraboo First Church of the Nazarene is a Wesleyan-Holiness congregation organized around the simple theme “Loving God, serving others.” Sunday begins with coffee at 8:45 a.m. and an adult devotional and Sunday school at 9:00, followed by worship at 10:00. The main service mixes contemporary worship songs with hymns, announcements, prayer, and an expository Bible message that normally lasts 30 to 45 minutes. Children worship with the whole congregation at the opening, then are dismissed downstairs for children's church before the sermon.

The church publishes enough detail for visitors to know the flow before arriving: the Sunday gathering usually ends around 11:15, and recent services can be watched online. A Wednesday service runs from 6:30 to 7:30 p.m., beginning with brief worship and continuing into Bible studies for adults and children. Rev. AJ Strutz serves as lead pastor, while a long-tenured worship leader supports the congregation's musical life. The church meets at 1800 Crawford Street, with office hours Monday through Thursday from 10:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m.
