Sunday School – Each Sunday morning from 9:30 – 10:30 am we have Sunday School groups that meet. Sunday School isn't just for kids. This is an excellent time to fellowship and get to know those around you in a small group setting. There are classes for all ages and we believe that this will be one of the most spiritually enriching times in your life. 

Children’s Ministries – Woodview Church of the Nazarene loves children and families. We are committed to providing opportunities to help your children grow closer to Jesus.

  • In our nursery the very youngest children receive lots of hugs, have books read to them, play with toys and hear songs of praise!

  • We have age appropriate activities for our children ages 3 through fifth grade. In addition to Sunday School we have Kinder Church (ages 3 through kindergarten) and Junior Church (grades 1st – 5th). During our morning worship service we dismiss our children to participate in Kinder and Junior Church where they sing songs, play games and worship Jesus in age appropriate ways. The last Sunday of each month our children worship with their families in Family Worship.

  • Kid Zone is a weekly children’s gathering committed to the physical, social, mental, and spiritual growth of children. It uses an active, hands-on learning approach to help kids discover, develop, experience, and grow. This year’s theme is “Rock Solid Followers.” Kids can experience exciting games, songs, stories, and snacks. Kid Zone meets on Wednesday evenings during the school year from 6:45 pm – 8:00 pm during the school year and is open to all children ages 2-11.

All age levels enjoy special events throughout the year that are fun-filled with a staff who nurture children with love and care! Come join us and experience the difference that our Children’s Ministries can make in your child’s life now and forever!

Youth Ministries – Youth are important to us at Woodview, and we are committed to reaching students, connecting them with other Christians, helping them grow in their relationship to Jesus Christ, and equipping them for a lifetime of ministry to the world.

Being a student isn’t always easy. Every day you experience challenges, excitement and struggles. You don’t have to face them alone. God understands everything you’re going through and wants to help you grow in Him and in relationship with the people around you.

Each Wednesday from 6:45-8:00 pm we gather together in the Big House to hang out and journey together as we follow Jesus Christ. There are also special activities that happen regularly throughout the year.

Come be a part of a community of believers who are growing to be all that God intends for us to be.

Prayer Ministries – Prayer is the lifeblood of the church and is a vital part of who we are at Woodview. The Intercessor’s group meets on Wednesday nights 6:45 pm in the Pastor’s office to pray for various needs within the church and the community. We also have an active prayer chain that prays for needs as they are made known.

Dare to Care – Dare-To-Care is a ministry designed to welcome people into the Body of Christ.    We desire to assist our guests find their place at Woodview and make this their home. We also want to encourage our established church family members by reminding them how important they are to God and to us.  It is our purpose to see that both guests and members are being encouraged and built up in their faith.

Weekly our D2C team members bless others through prayer (prayer-care), notes of encouragement (note-care), phone calls (tele-care), and visitation (home-care). There is a place for everyone to get involved and share their gifts with the Body of Christ.  If you would like to know more about this ministry of outreach and assimilation or if you know of someone who could use a word of encouragement, please contact the church office at church@woodviewnaz.org or (517) 372-7341.
