About LOUCC

We are known as a progressive, compassionate, welcoming congregation with strong commitments to social and environmental justice. Comprised of believers and questioners, we pride ourselves on being an Open and Affirming congregation, welcoming, affirming, and advocating for the full inclusion of lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender persons in the church. We are an Earthwise congregation, striving to honor, protect, and educate others about the planet and our role as stewards of creation. As a Just Peace congregation, we aspire to be a beacon of hope, a zone of freedom, a voice of protest, and a body of laborers as we strive for justice in our community and world. As an Immigrant Welcoming congregation we are called by our God to work to create a world where there are no longer strangers, responding in word and action whenever lives are made vulnerable or injustice occurs.

Our church is located in Lake Oswego, Oregon, a suburb of Portland, and we gather from all parts of the metro area. We are multigenerational and welcome people of all ages, races, and backgrounds. In addition to weekly Sunday morning worship, we have ongoing activities for faith education, spiritual growth, and community mission.
