Our Church
The Smithville Church of the Nazarene had its first service on Sunday, January 27, 1963 with Pastor Maurice Evans. Since that time, we have had nine pastors with Trent Colwell as our current Lead Pastor. We dedicated our current building in 1978 and completed a major remodel in 2017.
Although our church started out very modest, we have prospered by the hard work and perseverance of our faithful members, and today we are known in Smithville as a church that loves and accepts everyone just as they are!

Worship Ministry
The heart of our church congregation is the Sunday morning worship service.
Smithville Nazarene services are a celebration of all that God is doing in our lives
and are opportunities for those in attendance to respond in praise and thanksgiving to the Lord.
We come together as a family to glorify God and encourage you to come worship with us.
It is our prayer that you leave each worship experience lifted up in your spirit
and encouraged to walk with Christ in the power of His Grace.

Youth Ministry
Smithville NAZYTH is an engaging and welcoming group for teens, aged 6th-12th grade, who want to grow in their faith, build lasting friendships, and make a real impact in their community.

Led by Christian Underhill, NAZYTH has a dedicated group of trained volunteers who help guide the youth in their walk of faith. Rooted in the love of Jesus, we seek to follow Him in everything we do--
whether it’s through worship, deep conversations, fun events, or serving others. We love to grow together by participating in different events throughout the year, both local & district events, such as ETNYI Summer Camp, Explosion, Top Nazarene Talent, worship nights and fun outings. We meet together in class group settings for Sunday School and Wednesday evening classes, where we study scripture through group discussions, object lessons, and prayer. |
We believe the Holy Spirit is actively working in and through us, guiding us to live with purpose and passion. No matter where you are on your journey, you belong here!
