Nazarene Compassionate Ministries
In 1984, the Church of the Nazarene General Board instituted Nazarene Compassionate Ministries to meet the physical, emotional, relational intellectual, and spiritual needs of the world.
The Nazarene Compassionate Ministries coordinator on the district NMI and/or local NMI council offers encouragement of Nazarene Compassionate Ministries worldwide through prayer support, information, Crisis Care Kits, and hands-on opportunities.
The first Sunday in December is Compassion Sunday in the Church of the Nazarene. The Board of General Superintendents designated Compassion Sunday to encourage a spirit of compassion and personal involvement among Nazarenes everywhere.
