First Christian Church

An open and affirming congregation dedicated to love, faith, scripture, service and social justice. Community outreach is prioritized and longstanding. Organizations and groups other than the church congregation utilize the property. Neighbors are welcome at FCC PDX. Critics are welcome at FCC PDX. All people are welcome at the Disciples of Christ (Christian Church) congregations I’ve known. Ever heard of ‘not judging a book by its cover?’ Perhaps allow a church to at least introduce itself to you before a hasty judgement.

A wonderful Christian community where everyone is welcome regardless of wealth, gender, sexuality, presentation, or flaws. This church also does a lot of work feeding and caring for houseless people in the Park Blocks.

The church members tie up a dog to their fence multiple times a week early in the morning and let it bark for hours. It's both cruel to the animal and inconsiderate to their residential neighbors who are trying to sleep.

A wonderful progressive Christian congregation, fully open-and-affirming of LGBT people and consciously anti-racist. They live their faith through a number of social-justice ministries, from offering food, showers, & laundry to homeless neighbors to welcoming ecumenical neighbors to use the building, etc. Pastor Cynthia McBride is a skilled theologian who delivers good sermons. Music is a little high-churchy but not overly so.
