A Message From Our Pastor
First Congregational is a Just Peace, inclusive community of Christian faith in Corvallis. We're a church where all are welcome — and where ‘all’ really does mean all. We are real people who care about nurturing love and belonging in the world, most often in the context of Christianity. We worship with tradition and innovation, weaving our liturgies and stories together every Sunday morning. We tell stories from the Bible and our lives, knowing that every story is a holy one.
If you are looking for a faith community to call home, we would love to meet you!
