Located on the corner of 36th and National Avenue in San Diego, Southeast Church of the Nazarene has a rich history intertwined with the heart of the 92113 neighborhood.

Yet, the core mission remains the same: serving Jesus and nurturing the 92113 community. Today, Southeast Church of the Nazarene continues to thrive. It offers a variety of services to its congregation and the wider community. Sunday morning worship takes place from 10:30 am to 12:30 pm, followed by a shared lunch.

Afterward, age-appropriate Bible classes begin at 7:00 pm. The church’s mission is simple yet profound: to live gracefully and faithfully under the Lordship of Jesus Christ within the 92113 neighborhood. Southeast Church of the Nazarene isn’t just a place of worship. It’s a vibrant hub where faith, community, and service intersect. It is a testament to the enduring power of faith and the transformative impact of a shared vision.
