List of Church of the Nazarene conventions information
The Church of the Nazarene is a conservative, evangelical, Christian church in the Wesleyan-Holiness tradition. It is headquartered in the United States of America with nearly 3 million members worldwide. Church governance, as well as statements of the church's beliefs, are found in a book called The Manual of the Church of the Nazarene. This dictates: "The General Assembly shall meet every fourth year…”
The Church of the Nazarene also hosts other conventions and conferences that support the mission of the church and provide resources to pastors and laity across the globe. Each division under the Church could host a convention per their individual constitutions. Most notably is the convention for Nazarene Youth which began hosting a conference in 1958. Each geographical sub-region, or District, is required to host an annual assembly to report on the status of the church within those geographical boundaries.
The Manual also says: “The general superintendents and said commission shall also have power, in case of an emergency, to change the time and place of the meeting of the General Assembly." Which was the case for postponing the 2021 General Assembly to 2023 due to complications of travel visas, and vaccination requirements and social distancing due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
