Church of the Nativity

Church of the Nativity An Episcopal parish in North Raleigh. All are welcome! We meet every Sunday at 9:30 am EST and our service livestream is available @ nativityonline.org.

At Church of the Nativity, we open our arms to others seeking faith in Jesus Christ, bearing witness to the fact that we all are God’s children. We relish our broad mix of generations and cultures, and wide range of thoughts and beliefs. Our thriving parish life is the reason we often are called “the church of the activity” – we consistently can be found enjoying each other at various events, fest

ival, concerts, classes, fundraisers, and meals. Church of the Nativity has a solid history of undertaking substantial outreach programs that benefit our community and our world. Because of our outward focus, we often attract people to our church who want to help others. We are committed to:

· Eucharistically centered worship

· Active outreach and evangelism

· Striving for peace and justice

· Fostering spiritual growth

· Supporting one another in this parish family

· Nurturing children in the knowledge and love of God

· Returning to God our gifts of time, talent, and treasure
