Who We Are
As a congregation of the Episcopal Church, we are anchored in a centuries-old tradition that is ancient yet new, ritualized yet relaxed, transcendent yet intimate, reverent yet filled with life. While some of us have been Episcopalians for all of our lives, others found the Episcopal Church only recently.
​
What we share is a common desire to seek and find God in the context of a community. We want to walk this journey with others... in worship, in conversation, through learning, in fellowship, and in service to Portland and the world.
We want to be a place where anyone—and we mean anyone—can experience a renewed, reconciled and loving relationship with Jesus Christ.
​
We strive to be a cathedral not just for the Diocese of Oregon but for people of many faiths and no faith throughout our state, and a critical part of that vocation is telling the truth about why we’re here. We recognize and honor those who for many generations stewarded this land before us, the Multnomah and Clackamas bands of the Chinook peoples.
