Growing Together in Christ
We are a multicultural and multi-ethnic congregation in Lansing, affiliated with the Michigan District Church of the Nazarene. Our worship services and church activities are held in both English and Haitian Creole, reflecting the diversity and unity of our church family.
At Lansing International Church of the Nazarene, we seek to create a place where God’s presence is experienced, holiness is lived out, and everyone feels welcome, no matter where they are on their spiritual journey. Here, grace is extended, forgiveness is embraced, and hope is renewed.
We are a united community growing together in faith, deepening our relationship with God, and building meaningful connections with one another.
