NELSON UNITED CHURCH
"We dare to live the Way of Jesus,
Embodying the Love of God"
Fredrick Thondhlana is an ordained minister of The United Church of Christ in Harare, Zimbabwe.
He will come with his wife, Juliet, and 9-year old daughter, Blessing. Although there will be immigration issues to complete, we are hopeful that he begins his ministry with us by November, 2024.
RAISE THE ROOF
A fundraising campaign to collect funds to keep our building safe.
We need to repair the roof and upgrade our electrical system!
The thermometer is rising! We have raised $15,000 so far toward our $100,000 goal. We have a third of the new electrical upgrade paid for. Much more yet to go, though, so please keep those donations rolling in.
Please prayerfully consider contributing to this need. Our building is an important venue for many concerts and groups in Nelson.
The NUC Vision Statement
At Nelson United Church we affirm that we are created as whole beings. We will gather to encounter the mystery of the Spirit and celebrate God’s gift of life.
