City & Culture

Did you know that the oldest standing building in Portland is actually a church? The Old Church Concert Hall—have you heard of it? It is a bit poetic, don’t you think, that one of the most unreligious cities in America claims a church as its oldest landmark? Portland has roots in the church. Portland’s history is founded on people of faith. We want to build up this faith again in our city, starting with a night of worship in the place where Christian heritage and tradition still lives. Come join us for our InCity Worship event on July 28, 2020 at 7PM as we sing praises to the Lord our God via a virtual live stream .

InCity Worship proudly presents the musical talents of Lamont Williams, Brant Colella, and Alyssa Fitchie, three artists who will lead us in music on this night. We want this event to be a celebration of our differences, our connectedness, and the interactions we all share on a daily basis by coming together and walking closer with Christ. 

We will join for one cause—a sense of acceptance and belonging. Just because we are separated geographically doesn’t mean we can’t assemble under the same roof for one night and feel bonded by Christ together. InCity Worship hopes to gather the Christian community for a reigniting of faith and fellowship. Let’s get real and be present by putting away our mobile devices. Let’s step out of our comfort zones, societal pressures, and hectic lives to take a breather. 

Together, we can touch each other’s hearts and find an honesty in worshipping Christ that we have all developed an intuition to find. 

We join for the cause of racial reconciliation, a sense of acceptance and belonging through worship and prayer.

Together, we can bridge the gaps in our faith. 
Together, we can freely celebrate Jesus Christ as our God through worship and praise. 
Together, we can remember God’s goodness in this city. 
Together, we can be changed.

Together, we are the church.

July 28th, 7pm, virtual - online worship

See you there.
