Prayer walks happening weekly!  Check out the calendar here and join us on the next one!



​We are asking and trusting God for 100 equipped and passionate workers (Neighborhood Missionaries) to go out and intentionally engage/serve every neighborhood in PDX.

A Luke 10 Strategy


Go - Jesus sent the 72 in pairs to every city and place...​
We cannot reach a community we are not physically present in.  So, our first step is getting out there.  Be present.
For More...

Pray - Jesus instructed the 72 to earnestly pray and ask God to send more workers
We can’t do anything without prayer.  Prayer must be a vital part of everything we do.  We are encouraged all throughout Scripture to pray for others (even our enemies), pray for guidance, intercede for the lost, and healing for the sick.  Jesus even had a habit of prayer.  If we want to do the work of the Lord we have to pray.
For More...

Get To Know - The 72 were supposed to find the man of peace, hang out in the city eating with them and getting to know them.
Relationships are at the center of every church planting, disciple making, Kingdom building strategy.  You simply cannot make disciples without relationships.  Jesus built relationships everywhere he went – often over dinner. Take time to get to know your community – share a meal with your neighbor.  Listen to what you hear and pay close attention to what you see.
For More...

Serve With Compassion - Jesus sent these disciples with instructions to heal the sick among them
The greatest commandment is to love God and love our neighbor.  If we want to reach people for Jesus we will have to lovingly serve them and meet some needs.  It is one way to put our faith into action.  
For More...

Share Jesus In Love and Hope - Theses disciples were to heal them and tell them the Kingdom of God was near
The ultimate goal is to point everyone to Jesus.  So as we get to know people and serve them or along side them we need to be ready to talk about Jesus.  People need to know why we do what we do. 
For More...

Rejoice and Celebrate - The disciples returned in joy and celebrated all they had seen
The work we are about is not easy.  Jesus sent the 72 out as lambs among wolves.  We need to celebrate the wins and take time to come together with the other brothers and sisters engaged in the fight.  It is a critical time of praise and encouragement.

*We are making disciples that are making disciples!!*

Neighborhood Focus

Every Sunday during Central Nazarene's service we will highlight 1 or 2 neighborhoods and spend some time praying for them.
