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.

When | Sundays, 5:30-7:00pm beginning January 24th

Where | in the multipurpose room of Willamette Christian Church

We start by sharing dinner and lead into discussion from there. Feel free to bring a friend. There is no cost to participate, and a full kids program is provided up to age 10.

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:

Due to unsafe conditions at West Linn High School, as of 11am Tuesday we have moved our Christmas Eve services to tenthstreetchurch.

We are planning for and looking forward to celebrating with you all on Christmas Eve at one of two services at West Linn High School. We will have a service at 3:00 p.m. and 5:00 p.m. - designed to celebrate the coming of the Christ Child - our Savior.

In the event that the district cancels the use of schools for Wednesday, we will move our services to tenthstreetchurch, and keep them at 3:00 and 5:00 p.m. We will notify everyone through the website and emails, and update the voice mail at the church.
