After 2 weeks of tent meetings, on May 21, 1939, 21 people responded to Gods call & became the charter members of Trinity Church of the Nazarene

We cannot complain because of our lot, for the cross has not been greater than his grace

For all that has been accomplished we bow our heads in humble gratitude

For all that the future holds we say, Thy will be done.
