Reducing Barriers
to Success
Through Education and Empowerment



About
The Community Center @ AFC is an outreach ministry of the people of Anderson First Church of the Nazarene, who want to make a difference in Madison County.
We’ve canvassed the area we call “Our GRID” (from Brown to Main Street, and from 23rd to 29th Street), where we want to be actively serving the community, sharing hope, bridging gaps, and building a better Anderson.
You are always welcome at the Community Center, where you can find a safe place, caring community, essential items, and various resources for learning opportunities, programs, services, and more.
