We are so excited to have you here, and we can’t wait to get to know you. I’m going to give you a brief overview of what our congregation is like and how you can get involved once you’re here.

Our New Years Workshop is coming up and we wanted to invite you to join us.

The workshop will take place from January 10th to January 12th. Our guest speaker Timothy Sumerlin, who is an experienced therapist and counselor in our Churches of Christ congregation, will guide us through a weekend of training around key concepts around Grief, Anxiety and Depression and some basic tools anyone can utilize to help the loved ones around them. This is an opportunity to learn how we can be a support and resource for our brothers an sisters in need and to understand our boundaries and expertise limits.

December 8th is going to be a sad but wonderful day as one of our best friends will be leaving us due to her upcoming marriage to Daniel. Please come help us celebrate Moriah Mendez as she goes on the next leg of her journey in Germany by attending her combined Bridal Shower and Going Away Party! This will be a wonderful opportunity to show her love, eat good food, share fun memories, and send her off on a high-note.

When: December 8th, @4pm (after church)

Where: Old Laurelhurst Church Basement

This November we are celebrating the holidays with an exciting opportunity to serve the community around us. We're partnering with a local organization called Home Forward to collect food for 100 Harvest Baskets we will be giving out to families in need! If you're interested in helping us make an impact on the community around us, you can help in one of three ways:

Amazon Smile is a website operated by Amazon with the same products, prices, and shopping features as Amazon.com. The difference is that when you shop on AmazonSmile, the AmazonSmile Foundation will donate 0.5% of the purchase price of eligible products to the charitable organization of your choice!

Every Thursday night a group of our community members put Christ’s words about serving the poor and needy into action by participating in Portland’s popular Night Strike event. Night Strike is a community gathering that mobilized volunteers/services, meets felt needs, and develops relationships that transform lives. More importantly though, it is a unique opportunity for the people of Portland to spend time under the Burnside Bridge to love people no matter what.

You might be noticing that our church website looks a little different than it normally looks… Well, SURPRISE! Welcome to the brand new website for the Portland Church of Christ community.

My name is Jenna Palmer and over the last few months I’ve worked with a lot of you to get this new website off the ground. I am so excited to share with you some of the new features and functionalities we’ve added to our website, and how you can utilize it to your best ability!

A reminder, we will be taking a special contribution for those affected by hurricane Dorian this upcoming Sunday. Donations can be given by plate during service or on Pushpay by tagging special contribution.

Rick Biordi presents... 1st Annual “Cure4Alz” Alzheimer’s Benefit Concert.
