Eastern Nazarene College thrives as a Christian college of the liberal arts and sciences in a beautiful and historic seaside city.
We support students in their spiritual development, providing them with opportunities to live their faith. The Office of Spiritual Development fosters spiritual transformation through programs and ministries that include faith formation, service opportunities, pastoral care, and leadership development.
ENC is one of nine liberal arts colleges supported by the International Church of the Nazarene in the United States and Canada and part of an educational network of sites supported by the church around the world. Considered one of the most diverse Christian colleges in the nation, Eastern Nazarene College has over 30 denominations, 14 foreign nations, 36 U.S. states, and 46% students of color represented on its campus.
Students are highly engaged, participating in research at Harvard, study at Oxford, mission trips to Uganda, outreach to the homeless of Boston, and ecological conservation on the South Shore. They discover their life’s purpose at Eastern Nazarene College and enjoy extraordinary success in fields as diverse as astrophysics and urban ministry. They use their academic and spiritual preparation in service to God and their communities, helping to create a more just world.
