Augustana Lutheran Church

Deep in the heart of Northeast Portland, we are a thriving, multicultural, multinational, multigenerational, welcoming and affirming, sanctuary, servant, and Reconciling in Christ congregation of about 850 members, called by Christ to share the good news of God’s love for all people. We are called by the Creator to work with our Muslim, Jewish, Buddhist, Hindu, Native American and Christian sisters and brothers and many people of good will, to seek justice and peace in all the earth and to care for the creation for generations to come, as together we weave God’s beloved community.

We are the church, committed to walking with the most vulnerable, freeing the oppressed, feeding the hungry, and caring for the sick and imprisoned, the refugee and the immigrant, the child and the elder. We are the church, publicly proclaiming that Black Lives Matter, while striving with partners to end white supremacy and systemic and institutional racism. We invite all to join us, united in the love of Christ and the power of the Holy Spirit, as we weave the Beloved Community where we truly love God, our neighbors, and ourselves.
