GMC Flags of the Nations: Guyana
Tuesday, December 11, 2012
Global Ministry Center
Since September 1, 2009, each week the Church of the Nazarene's Global Ministry Center (GMC) proudly flies a flag of one of the many nations in which the denomination is present in ministry. Leaders were invited to send a national flag to be flown at the GMC alongside the flag of the United States*. The national flags rotate weekly, and photos of them raised are sent to the church leaders of that country.

This week: Guyana

The Church of the Nazarene officially entered Guyana in 1946.

Guyana had a population of 744,768 in 2011. That same year, Guyana reported 47 Churches of the Nazarene, 46 of which were officially organized. Guyana has 3,899 total members.

Guyana has one Phase 2 district and one Phase 3 district. It is a part of the Mesoamerica Region.

* = The weekly highlighted flag is raised on the middle of three poles in compliance with U.S. government protocols. It flies to the left of the GMC host-nation United States flag, which flies above the host-state flag of Kansas. The Christian flag flies on the third pole.

The Global Ministry Center is the mission and service hub of the Church of the Nazarene.
