Pastor Juan Pacheco, who has served as Assistant to the President for Communication since July 2023, recently accepted the Lord’s call to the Florida Conference.

On Sabbath, May 4, kids and their families arrived at the Holden Convention Center to host the second annual PDX Children’s Church in partnership with the Oregon Conference Children & Families Ministries department. Children's Church is a full worship service that’s led by kids and for kids. This year’s theme was Bugs! Big lessons from God’s smallest creatures!

Each of our employees fill important roles in ministry within their local community and the greater conference, so it’s always hard when members of our Oregon Conference team are called to service somewhere else.

In recent weeks, two members of our Oregon Conference Outreach Ministries team have announced their transitions to new career opportunities.

Young adults, church leaders, mentors, and parents gathered to learn about the unique challenges emerging adults face and to discuss how churches can meet their needs at the NAD Young Adult L.I.F.E. Tour's latest stop at the Pleasant Valley Adventist Church in Happy Valley, Oregon, April 19-20.

Our hearts ache with yours at missing out on the spiritual and social fellowship of camp meeting this year, but we strongly believe that God is calling us to take this step in 2024.

Praise God for His faithfulness and for honoring the prayers of the Oromo congregation to reach one more. Evangelism is not a one-time event, but it is a way of life for the Oromo congregation.

Each year, Christians are reminded to return to the story of Jesus’ life, death, and resurrection during the Easter season. What about the rest of the year?

Over spring break this year, church members from the Ohana and Gladstone Park Churches traveled to Zapaton, Costa Rica to build a new church, provide medical services, put on a vacation Bible school for kids, conduct an evangelistic series, and bring much needed supplies.

Easter at Sunnyside Adventist Church in Portland wasn’t just another service – it was a significant celebration that brought many people in the community together in a mix of reverence and joy.
