About Us
OUR MISSION
WE EXIST TO MAKE DISCIPLES FOR THE GLORY OF GOD
We make disciples by Gathering, Growing, and Going.
We Gather as a body of believers to exalt Jesus through the reading and preaching of the Bible, prayer, song, communion, and giving.
We Grow as a Church and as individuals though discipleship. At Ossian Nazarene we glorify God by being and making of disciples.
We Go by serving and sharing the gospel so that Jesus might be made known to all people in Ossian and to the ends of the earth.
