About Us...
We are a member of the Presbyterian Church (USA), which means we are a traditional church with roots going back to Martin Luther and the Reformation. We believe that all men and women are the children of God. This means that we are an accepting and welcoming church without bias or prejudice. As such we do our best to live the Gospel teachings of Jesus, which is to love God with our whole heart, mind and strength, and to love our neighbor as our selves.
We serve our community by being active throughout the Reedsport area. Within the church we have free coats for those in need and who cannot afford to buy new. We keep free food on hand for those who are in need. We have a ping-pong table that is always set up and ready for anyone who desires to come in and play. Additionally, our doors are open for groups needing a place to meet—such as AA (Alcoholics Anonymous) and OA (Over eaters Anonymous), the Quilters Guild and PEO. In addition to the above, the pastor gives free guitar and piano lessons to all desiring to learn, but who cannot afford a teacher.
As a group of
blievers, we understand the Scriptures to be the inspired word of God and do
our best to be discerning and to live out God’s will in all things.
We can be characterized as:
• having respect and appreciation for
human diversity—we like all people
• a church that welcomes all people
because all people are children of God
• a "come as you are" family church—we
have no pretenses about who we are
• a
welcoming, friendly, compassionate and loving community of faith
Our vision statement:
We take seriously the
admonition of Jesus that, “I assure you that when you have done it for the least
of one of these brothers and sisters of mine, you have done it for me.”
We do our best to live out
that
admonition in
both
our church lives and in our
personal lives.

34. Then the king will
say to those at his right hand, “Come, you that are blessed by my Father,
inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world; 35. for I
was hungry and you gave me food, I was thirsty and you gave me something to
drink, I was a stranger and you welcomed me, 36. I was naked and you gave me
clothing, I was sick and you took care of me, I was in prison and you visited
me.” 37. Then the righteous will answer him, “Lord, when was it that we saw you
hungry and gave you food, or thirsty and gave you something to drink? 38. And
when was it that we saw you a stranger and welcomed you, or naked and gave you
clothing? 39. And when was it that we saw you sick or in prison and visited
you?”
