The First Church of the Nazarene was established in 1938, in Beckley, West Virginia. Property was purchased on Johnstown Road and Jennings Street for the building of our church and services were conducted in the basement for several years until our sanctuary was completed in 1956.
In the 1970's, four additional classrooms and a fellowship hall was added. As years passed, the congregation was able to purchase more property and in 2003, a new Family Life Center was built. This new building has allowed us to reach out to the community and surrounding area in a very positive way.
In 2011, the church was blessed to be offered a house on the right side of our property which was then purchased and after extensive remodeling, (performed mainly by the men in our congregation ) turned into a new parsonage for our parsonage family. They were able to move in on November of 2012. The old parsonage will be used to help others in need.
