QUESTION: Just who are you people anyway?

Excellent question! I'm glad you asked! We are the Ministry to Students at El Morro Church of the Nazarene in Los Osos, California. We're located at 1480 Santa Ysabel, just down the road from the Middle School.



QUESTION: So ... um ... what do you people DO?

Wonderful question! I'm happy you asked! Our main times together are Sunday morning at 9:30am for Sunday School, Tuesday evenings at 7pm for Sr. High (9th-12th), and Wednesday evenings at 6:30pm for Jr. High (6th-8th).  In addition, we attend the 11am Sunday service with the rest of the church.



QUESTION: This Tuesday/Wednesday "BayLife" thing -- what's that?

Great question! I'm pleased you asked! Tuesday and Wednesday nights are our times together during the week.  Tuesdays, we start at seven (come early for coffee and talk time), and Wednesdays we start at 6:30.



QUESTION: Now, I guess I should ask -- what do you believe?

Fantastic question! I'm delighted you asked! El Morro Church is part of a worldwide denomination known as the Church of the Nazarene. Like other mainstream Christians, we believe that Jesus was the Christ, the perfect Son of God, and that He died on the cross, rose again, and went back to heaven. We believe that through Jesus, we have access directly to God -- that He hears us when we pray, and that He will forgive us for those wrong things we do if we ask with a sincere heart. We believe that nothing can steal us out of God's hand, but we can walk away from Him and break the beautiful relationship He wants us to have with Him. But the great news is that we believe that God offers us the chance to become more and more like Him -- to experience "holiness" in our own lives. That's His gift to us! It's not easy, but with God, all things are possible.



QUESTION: So at this "BayLife" thing - what do you do?

Terrific question! I'm ecstatic you asked! BayLife differs a bit from week to week, but there are some things you can ALWAYS expect. First, we have a great time just being together. We like each other, and we like meeting new people and making them friends. We usually have a time of music with our worship band. They're a talented bunch -- and the music we sing is all about telling God how wonderful we think He is. We often play a game and award prizes. We always have at least one time when we pray together -- and we often share some of our requests with each other. Topping it all off, we have a lesson based out of the Bible. With the Senior High Group, we break up into small groups, too.
