We might not be physically together as a congregation, but we still seek to come into the divine presence with a song!


Be joyful in the Lord, all ye lands;
Serve the Lord with gladness!
Come into the divine presence with a song!

SAFE CAMP


Safe Camp is a site located on property of the First Congregational Church of Corvallis that offers shelter, through camping sites and microshelters, to people who are unhoused. The idea is that Safe Camp, as the name implies, offers a safe place where people legally can settle, begin to receive services, and get placed in the pipeline for more permanent housing.   Learn more about Safe Camp here.


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!

Pastor Jennifer Butler
