Join us for "The Journey"!

This summer, we are offering an eight-week Zoom discipleship program called "The Journey" on Tuesday nights in July & August, from 6–7:30pm (PST). This study is for those seeking freedom from unwanted same-sex attraction & gender confusion, as well as family & friends of LGBTQ-identified loved ones. The Journey is also a great introduction to Portland Fellowship for those considering joining our discipleship programs in the fall.
