While we understand the church consists of the people of God and not a building, buildings erected for the purpose of ministry help provide a sense of permanence, functionally enhance ministry efforts, and convey an attitude that the Church of the Nazarene intends to "put down roots." Alabaster funds help provide land for many Work & Witness projects, and the entire Alabaster Offering goes toward the purchase of land and construction of churches, schools, medical facilities, and homes for missionaries and national workers. 100th Anniversary of the NMI!

Wesley Wakefield Editorial “And whatsoever ye do in word or deed, do all in the Name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God and the father by Him.” Colossians 3:17 Our whole life is lived for God in all that we do whether in work, worship or relationship, should be done “in Christ’s Name” as unto Him and for His glory. God expects us to do and be our very best with what He gives us. To do it with all our might-to improve every moment in redeeming time-to seize every opportunity, and to use every means of grace. We are to do this constantly and consistently with a deep sense of both love and duty. Beware of slacking your heavenly pace. The nearer the Goal, the closer the victory-the greater will be the battle, but with Him, He causes us always to triumph. God gives to us His gifts, severally as He will-do we use them? They are never for boasting, but for service. Remember the parable of the talents! All that we have is not ours as owners, but only as stewards to be put to use according to our Masterthe Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ’s directions set for His Holy Word and applied to our lives by the blessed Holy Spirit. This is not any use, but the life and heart of holiness to affect and penetrate every part of us. Not in any manner, but our might, our very best. Not in some special times, but all times and in every circumstance. The great key to this holy life is a heartthe very centre and total of our being-cleansed from sin, and the faith that works by love-a perfect or complete love without things that would try to become the asides that hinder our Lord being truly at the centre of the circle of our being…..see this precious truth in 1John 1. WE are a salvation people. We believe in salvation. We believe in the old fashioned salvation. Our is jus the same salvation taught in the Bible, proclaimed by prophets and apostles. We believe that the world needs it, and that this and this alone will set it right We want to other nostrum-nothing new. Our work is salvation. We are not mere sentimentalists or theory people; we publish what we have seen and handled and experienced of the word of life and the power of God. We aim at salvation...the great purpose and the business of our lives. Let us seek first the kingdom of God. Let us be Salvationists indeed.
