January Events

Here are the details for our January activities. I hope everyone can make it out. Please let us know if you plan to attend any or all of them so we can prepare. Also, if you have any activities for young adults or young families at your congregations please forward us the information. And if you have an idea for an event in your area send it our way! We are trying to move out and do some activities in different areas but need your help!


Union Gospel Mission Volunteering

What:
We will be serving dinner at the mission and helping with clean up.
Where: Union Gospel Mission
3 NW 3rd Ave.
Portland, Oregon 97209

When: Friday, January 25 7-9:30pm. We will meet at the Portland Congregation to carpool at 6pm. Directions click here.
Bring: Waiver (see attached pdf file), bottled water, wear clothes you do not mind getting a little messy, and a beautiful smile and attitude!
After: Hopefully everyone will be up for coffee or a snack and we can talk about our experience at the Mission and how it relates to our service to Christ.

Dinner and a Movie


What: There are many theatres in the Portland area that show recently released movies a fraction of the cost of a corporate theatre. Lucky for us they also serve pizza! So we get to not only save money and see a movie on the big screen but also get some tasty pizza pie...
Where: Many of the theatres play different movies. We will check a few days before on movies and times. We will choose from the Baghdad, Laurelhurst, Montvilla, or Kennedy School theatres. We will meet at the Portland Congregation beforehand at 5pm and choose a movie from any of the theatres and go from there.
When: Saturday, January 19, 5-10pm
Cost: $3-5 a movie, $5-10 for food
