What is SouthNaz (southnaz.org)?

Updated

SouthNaz is a church in Lansing, Michigan, and southnaz.org is its website. The site describes SouthNaz as a community of "imperfect but forgiven" believers and presents itself as a place for people of all ages and backgrounds. Its stated vision is to be "shaped like Christ in our homes, church, city, and world"; its mission is to follow God, gather to connect in relationships, and share God's love with the world; and its purpose is to make Christ-like disciples in the nations.

Service time and location

The site lists one weekly service and a specific address:

Detail Information
Service time 10:30 am Sundays
Location 401 W. Holmes Rd, Lansing, MI 48910
Landmark Next to the Everett High School Football Field

If you are planning a first visit, this is the practical information to use. The site does not describe dress expectations or a separate newcomers' event, so the service time and address are the main confirmed details.

What the site covers

The homepage and navigation point to these main areas:

  • About Us — beliefs, staff, and who the church is
  • Ministries — Kids, Youth, Adults, Connect Groups, Outreach, Spiritual Care, and Worship Arts
  • Worship — bulletin, calendar, and a live/on-demand stream
  • Give — online giving
  • Contact — contact form, prayer request, and Church Community Builder (a church management/login tool)
  • ONU+ — a linked external resource

The site also includes an "I'm new" section that invites visitors to "come and grow with us just as you are."

Connect Groups

The site treats Connect Groups as the primary way people connect and grow at SouthNaz. Groups meet both on campus and off campus, and the church says there is "something for everyone." According to the site, groups are organized around similar interests and involve Bible study, prayer, encouragement, support during trials, and serving together.

If you want to move beyond attending a Sunday service, the Connect Groups page (/ministries/connect-groups) is the specific entry point the site provides.

Ministries for different ages

  • Kids — described as equipping children and their families with tools for faith
  • Youth (FUSE) — worship, fellowship, discipleship, and ministry for youth
  • Adults — opportunities for men and women to pray, grow, and serve

What the site does not specify

The available page content does not state denominational affiliation details beyond the "Naz" name, nor does it list prices, membership requirements, or whether online giving or the Church Community Builder login requires an account. Those details would need to be confirmed directly through the Contact page or by attending a service.
