NTS Nurturing Care

Nurturing Care is a project of Nazarene Theological Seminary that addresses elementary school-age children with autism through a network of churches to nurture experiences of God through worship and prayer, while extending care in and through kids to local congregations. The ministry utilizes design thinking (a creative problem-solving process) to develop prototypes in worship and prayer practices uniquely suited to serve children shaped by diverse contexts. Congregations work collaboratively with support from consultants, partner organizations, and subject matter experts to offer caring nurture to a growing segment of the population often overlooked by faith communities.
