Church Engagement

Trevecca Nazarene University is a primary educational partner for Churches of the Nazarene across the Southeast USA, but it also seeks to partner with churches that name the name of Christ to minister hope and healing to God's creation. While much of what is listed in terms of resources on this page are Nazarene-related, Trevecca is here to help support and encourage church leaders who identify with the University's focus on hearts totally yielded to God for service in this ever-changing world.

The Power of Giving

Your contributions play a pivotal role in nurturing the aspirations of students like Naomi and Drew. Each donation acts as a stepping stone, enabling these young hearts to chase their dreams fervently and to heed the call that God has placed on their lives—to extend compassion, love and aid to those in need. It's more than just financial support; it's an investment in a brighter, kinder future led by individuals committed to making a substantial difference in the world around them.
