Our Story

After spending many years on staff at Calvary Chapel Golden Springs in Southern California, Steven and Jessica Cameron moved to Portland, Oregon to start a church. With God’s blessing, they began a bible study at Laurelhurst Park in May, 2021. Shortly after, Calvary Chapel Portland City was born and began meeting in Central Eastside.

Our Vision

Portland, Oregon is such a beautiful and unique place, filled with nature, art and culture. Once a top travel destination, the city has since fallen on hard times. Calvary Chapel Portland City exists to bring the message of hope in Jesus to anyone who will listen.

Calvary Chapel

Calvary Chapel is a non-denominational family of churches that started during the hippie revolution of the 1960’s. Known for its casual style and welcoming approach, Calvary Chapel exploded into an international movement of over 1800 churches. In a time where mistrust of organized religion is higher than ever before, we are excited to be a part of such a dynamic, authentic movement of churches.
