Our
Prayer
“A Sanctuary for the City” is both a time to reshape our physical space in Portland and an opportunity to reshape our congregation. This is why we are launching “A Sanctuary for the City” with two, back-to-back prayer events (listed below) for all of us to attend as we are able. Additionally, at the end of the Sanctuary for the City teaching series on October 19, we will launch an entire year of prayer together.
We have timed this initiative of imagining the future to go alongside our 25 year anniversary. Our next 25 years will begin with extraordinary prayer through the events below. We cannot and will not move forward without the help of God through his empowering presence, the Holy Spirit. These are not optional times of spiritual refreshment, but necessary actions of a community desperate for the Living God. We need him. Whether your heart is longing for prayer and presence or if you find yourself apathetic and weary, come back to the heart of God with us as we begin a significant new season together.

What is “A Sanctuary for the City?”
Sanctuary for the City is a two-year, Spirit-led invitation to increase our own participation in God’s mission by strengthening our physical presence in Portland to multiply our ability to serve the city and share Jesus.
