Who we are
The Journey of Grace/Mesa First Church of the Nazarene was first organized on February 27, 1948 after several years of a small group of families praying for and asking to begin their own Nazarene church in Mesa. The church began with a small group of dedicated families and has stayed in the same neighborhood for over 60 years now. Through seasons of faith, prayer, and sacrificial giving, the church has grown and expanded its East University property.
We desire to be a neighborhood church that reaches out and impacts the community for the Kingdom of God. We exist to serve everyone created in God’s image, and to invite all to become disciples of Jesus. The church of the Nazarene has always desired to serve the marginalized, those on the outside, and those that are wondering about who God is. We desire to love like Jesus, grow closer to God and to each other, and to serve those who aren’t yet a part of our church family.
In 2021 our church board, along with our congregation, moved together to change the name of our church to Journey of Grace Church of the Nazarene to better reflect who we are as a congregation and our desire to invite those who are not here yet to allow us to Journey along side them in their walk, extending the grace we all need.
We’d love to meet you, please feel free to check out more information about visiting our church or getting connected through our ministries.

Leader Bio:
Kurtis served as youth pastor of Journey of Grace (formerly Mesa First) from 2003-2013. He, his wife Emily and son Malachi, then moved to Ecuador and helped plant a church with Ardeo Global. In 2016 the Strunk family returned to the States and served on the pastoral team at City First Church of The Nazarene in Eugene, Oregon.
Feeling God was calling them to a time of waiting in the desert, the Strunks moved back to Arizona where they enjoyed the fellowship of other believers in a house church for two years. During this time they added Vivienne to their family and felt God preparing them for their next adventure.
“We never imagined the next great adventure would be returning to where we started. We have a deep love for these people and a fire in our hearts for God’s kingdom to come and will to be done in this city.” -Kurtis
