About Avon Parkside Church of the Nazarene

Avon Parkside Church of the Nazarene is nestled in the land of opportunity 25 minutes west of Indianapolis. Avon Township serves as a bedroom community for the greater Indianapolis area and is growing.  Our church family consists of seasoned believers with a handful of younger families that are looking to connect with our community and provide a safe place for not yet believers to experience hope in Christ. We are currently in the midst of a ministry shift that has given us an opportunity to rethink and re-vision how we see God shaping us for the years to come. Since calling a new pastor in the fall of 2021 we (the pastor and leadership) have made some positive changes and are gaining momentum as we move forward.
