Reserving the Church and Use of Its Space and Appointments

If you wish to rent space at Argentine Church of the Nazarene for an event or party, you will need to make arrangements for a date and time through this form. The church office and leadership will have to approve/confirm dates and times.

Opening the Church

The church will be opened on the date of your event at the start time listed on this form.

A Church Coordinator is necessary if paid staff members are not available to open the building. The Church Coordinator will be responsible for unlocking the church, turning on lights and equipment, and closing the building up after the event. They are not responsible for cleaning or tidying up. They are required by the church to stay during the event. If it is appropriate, please invite them to your event as they are required to stay in the building during occupancy.

Flowers may be placed on the communion table, provided a plastic plant saucer is placed underneath.
