Oregon City Evangelical has a history of worship and service in Oregon City dating back to 1885, when Josiah Bowersox held the first meeting in the home of John Deireinger. Despite turning 125 in 2010, OCEC is younger than you might think! Since beginning in a house, the church is now in its third location and is home to three services each Sunday morning with classes for all ages. We offer programs for children, Jr High, Sr High, women, men, marriages, seniors (55+), and a young adult meeting. The church is alive with babies, children, teens and adults of all ages! While OCEC started as a church for German immigrants, we now speak the language of many generations who are seeking to find and build a relationship with God.
Our church is motivated to serve. We find joy in devoting several days each year to serving around our community. We have helped at homes, schools, city facilities and care centers. At Thanksgiving and Christmas, we provide food boxes and gifts for needy families. We are blessed to provide food for 30+ children at Mt Pleasant Elementary weekly through their Back Pack Buddies program. We are excited to offer Shelter Homes where we assist families to get back on their feet and thrive again.
