WELCOME TO PMC

"At Portland Mennonite Church we are striving to be a distinctively Christ-shaped community that is actively engaged in the compassion, shalom and justice of the Gospel."

About PMCOn Sunday mornings, 200 of us (give or take) gather for Sunday School and worship. During the school year our Sunday school hour begins at 9:30 AM and our worship services begins at 8:30 AM and 10:45 AM. (During the summer months we have one service at 9:30 AM and do not have Sunday School.)
We would be glad to have you join us. Whether you are full of faith or full of questions, whether you are ready to jump into the life of the congregation or wondering if church is right for you or not, whether you are young or old, cool or stodgy, whether you are single, married, divorced or widowed, straight or gay or questioning, whether you have a high-powered job, are looking for work, or are trying to figure out what to do with your life, whether you are a quiet soul or part of a loud family, wherever you find yourself on your journey of faith, you are very welcome at Portland Mennonite Church. During the week, small groups meet all over the metropolitan area. And every day members of the congregation who work at hospitals, teach school, drive public transit buses, run businesses, work in law offices and parent children, strive to heed the ancient words of the prophet Jeremiah: "Seek the peace of the city where I have sent you ... and pray to the Lord on its behalf" (Jeremiah 29.7). Our congregation is actively involved globally in service and advocacy efforts with Mennonite Central Committee and we work with local ministries including Mainspring Portland, Night Strike, New City Initiative and others. To learn more, look through our web site. If you have any questions , please contact us. You are very welcome to join us on our journey of faith. Peace to you, Rod Stafford |
