Eastern Nazarene College is an official college of the Church of the Nazarene on the Eastern educational region, which includes Maine, New Hampshire, Vermont, Massachusetts, Rhode Island, Connecticut, New York, Pennsylvania, Maryland, Delaware, New Jersey, District of Columbia, and the eastern panhandle of West Virginia and Virginia.
ENC is committed to building relationships with churches across the region by providing travel programs and representation for local churches and district/regional organizations. Representation and resources are also available for churches of all denominations in the local area.
ENC appreciates your financial investment and prayerful support. We have created an online giving portal for church treasurers and district leaders to access, and we hope it will provide greater administrative ease.

ENC Challenges its district churches to be involved in its success. These three steps will allow the college to continue its important mission.
Continue to pray for ENC with your church family by following along with our Daily Prayer Calendar. Ask the Lord to bless this college and its students, and make it possible for ENC to continue its important and faithful mission into the future.
Let ENC be the college for your church. Speak freely and openly about ENC any time you have the opportunity. Encourage individuals to learn more about the college and invite them to take a look at all that we have to offer. Building a stronger enrollment is vital to our success. View admissions information or contact admissions@enc.edu to connect with an admissions counselor today.
For this fiscal year, we are asking you to consider doubling your budget. We are looking forward to a healthy future and partnership with Trevecca and your support can help us overcome our deficit and operate in the black by next academic year. We have a conservative fiscal plan in place and we know the best days are ahead.
For every donation we receive from a church, we mail out a remittance form that lists a confirmation of your most recent donation. In addition to this, Church Relations now emails monthly giving updates to all churches in our region that list the total amount we have received towards your current education budget. You may also call us at 617-745-3558 to inquire about your church’s giving or express any concerns.
Funding the Mission does not currently post education budget giving for ENC. ENC emails monthly giving updates to each district secretary. The districts then report individual church giving to Funding the Mission.
It’s likely that we have an incorrect or old address in our database. Please email churchrelations@enc.edu with your church’s name, district, church code, and preferred mailing address. We’ll update our records and begin sending remittance forms to your church.
We must send all church remittance forms/receipts directly to the church location or church mailing address, unless the pastor approves otherwise. If you would prefer, we can include “[Your name], Treasurer” in the address line. Feel free to contact Church Relations at churchrelations@enc.edu to request this change. You can also call 617-745-3558 with any additional questions.
Please fill out a Church Matching Form and mail it to the below address with your scholarship check. Be sure to include either the student’s name or “Church Matching” on the memo line. Thank you for supporting our students!

We match any church matching scholarship up to $500 and will match $500 of any scholarship amount exceeding this. For instance, if your church sends a scholarship check for $1,000, Eastern Nazarene College will match $500 of this amount to make the total scholarship $1,500.
There are many ways that we are trying to resources our churches. Please check out a few of those below.

The Institutional Repository of Eastern Nazarene College contains scholarly work created by ENC faculty, staff, and students, as well as material from the College’s Archives. This makes important research and historical items available to a wide audience and helps assure long-term preservation.
ENC students are as bright and faithful as ever, and our alumni are working as the hands and feet of our Lord. Our Nazarene student population communicate our need best when they discuss the spiritual development and the transformative education that happens on campus.

“I try to look at people the way God looks at people. Instead of just people in my life and how they relate to me, I try to always think of their value and their place in the Kingdom of God.”

“Spiritual development happens in the every day at ENC. Through chapel, service, and coursework, I’ve experienced growth first-hand and continue to strive for Christ-likeness.”

“I hope to help people realize the power that lies within themselves. I will seek out the unnoticed, the marginalized, the lonely and the rejected because it is from these dark places that our greatest leaders can emerge. The most important part of being the president is going into these places and lighting a spark.”
