Friends of Nazareth (FON). The FON ministry is a 501 (c)(3) corporation that is dedicated to supporting the Nazareth Baptist School. FON serves at the invitation of the Nazareth Baptist School (NBS), Nazareth Israel.
Nazareth Baptist School (NBS) began as a ministry of the Foreign Mission Board of the Southern Baptist Convention in 1935-36 school year. It has been in continuous operation, except for a break for the 1948 war period, since its inception. Its foundational principles are Evangelical. Its vision is for Building the Rising Generations – Glorifying Jesus Christ through Distinctive Education. It is a K-12th school with about 1000 students. Unique to any of the Christian schools in Israel, NBS requires that EVERY student attend age-graded chapel and Bible class.

Reports come in regularly of amazing things happening in the classroom, chapel, courtyard, camps, clubs, and in the community. Thank you for letting us go and be the “hands and feet” of Jesus. NBS could not continue and we could not go if it weren’t for the diligent prayers and faithful gifts of our friends. Simply put … thank you!
