The building project
Help us build a new church in Nazareth
Our growing congregation gathers in the pastor’s basement. Help us build a permanent church and community space where people can worship, pray and find belonging for generations to come.
Where we are today
Grateful for a basement, but it is not enough
At the moment, our church community gathers in the pastor’s basement because we do not yet have a dedicated church building.
While we are grateful for the space we have, it is not suitable for a growing congregation, nor for the activities and community support we hope to provide. Space is tight, access is difficult for older members, and there is nowhere for children to be children.
- A growing congregation with nowhere left to seat people
- No accessible entrance for elderly and disabled members
- No dedicated rooms for children’s activities or counselling
- No suitable store for the food and clothing we distribute
What we are building
A home for worship, prayer and service
We are working toward building a new church and community space in Nazareth that will serve Christians for years to come: a place for worship, prayer, children’s activities, fellowship, and serving families in need.
-
Worship hall
Room for our whole congregation to gather, with space to grow.
-
Prayer room
A quiet place for prayer, counselling and pastoral care.
-
Children’s rooms

Why it matters
A lasting home for a small and ancient Christian community
Christians in Israel and the Palestinian territories are a minority of the minority: some of the oldest Christian communities in the world, in the land where our faith began.
A church building here is more than architecture. It is a place where a community stays, where children are baptised and taught, where the elderly are visited, and where families in need find food, clothing and dignity.
Your support can help us care for families today and build a home for our Christian community for the future.
“Whoever is generous to the poor lends to the Lord, and He will repay him for his deed.” Proverbs 19:17
