Our church is growing, and with it, our need for volunteers!  We currently need additional people to serve in these areas: building hosts, setup for Sunday Night Service, teardown for Sunday Night Service, security, stagehands, outdoor landscaping, greeters, and kitchen team volunteers.

If you are interested in learning more about serving in any of these areas, please contact Rhonda Johnson.

Also, with the growth in attendance, our Children’s Ministry is growing!  If you love children and are interested in serving as a teacher or teaching assistant, please let Pastor Robben know!

This Sunday is Promotion Sunday, as kids move from their current classrooms to their new ones based on the grade they will enter in the fall.  Students will begin in their current classroom, then parents will pick them up in their new classrooms after they celebrate their graduation to a new grade. Teachers will give parents a handout with pickup locations.

It’s hard to believe that an entire year has gone by since we moved into our new facility.

We just want to say THANK YOU to all of you who have made this church what it is: A caring community that loves God, loves people, and serves the world.

Check out some pictures below of our construction, move in, and dedication service. Also check out our “Greater Things” video for a glimpse into what we’re all about at Willamette Christian Church!

Our missions team has partnered with Forward Edge in the relief effort to help the victims of the recent earthquake in Haiti. Please click the DONATE link below to make a contribution.

If you could ask God one question and you knew it would be answered, what would it be?

Christianity Explored gives you time and space to explore the big questions of life. It’s relaxed and informal. You don’t need to know anything about the Bible.

You can ask any question you want, or just sit and listen. It’s up to you.

At WCC, we view missions as an essential part of our church. We are committed to the mobilization of our own resources (prayer, monetary, and human) for the objective of reaching all peoples of the world for Christ. WCC supports both long-term missionaries in other countries, as well as those who wish to make a difference in the lives of the less-fortunate on a short-term basis.

There are so many needs all around the world for your love and support. Contact Shanon Vroman at 503.519.0569 or email shanonmv@comcast.net to discuss the ways you can serve the world. Here are some of the current opportunities:
