Nazarene Missions International focuses on five strategic areas where the local church can have the greatest impact on missions within the Church of the Nazarene.
- The first is prayer. NMI gathers believers together for prayer in the local church, linking us to our brothers and sisters in Christ across the globe.
- The second is the World Evangelism Fund, which fuels the Church of the Nazarene’s mission by combining gifts from individuals and churches to support ministries everywhere.
- Through the Alabaster Offering, the third emphasis, ministries around the world receive funds to purchase property and buildings.
- The fourth is to engage children and youth through education and fostering calls to missions.
- Links, the last area of emphasis, strategically connects Nazarene missionaries and Nazarene churches through prayer, personal contact, and generous giving.

TNC supports Faith Promise in the Church of the Nazarene, a method of raising financial support for global missions in which you promise to give a specific amount based on what you believe God wants you to contribute. This commitment is made in faith and is considered a form of worship, separate from regular tithing, to support ministries beyond the local church—more about Faith Promise.
The Alabaster Offering provides funding for property and buildings worldwide. While we understand the church consists of the people of God, not a building, buildings erected for ministry help provide a sense of permanence, functionally enhance ministry efforts, and convey the attitude that the Church of the Nazarene intends to “put down roots”—more about Alabaster.
