Corvallis Mennonite Fellowship

Community

Small groups meet on a weekly to monthly basis. Groups are organized around themes or common interests. Contact a member of the Pastoral team if you are interested in joining or forming a group. Quarterly church life meetings are held to discuss or make decisions on the direction of the church. Membership is open to all who affirm our statement of purpose.

Statement of Purpose

We are a group of people who seek to know God our creator and God's love. We want to know and follow Jesus, who redeems us by his death and resurrection in
our daily lives. We also want to know and listen to God's holy spirit. As a body and
as individuals we seek God's kingdom above all else. Our search includes reading
and pondering scripture, giving time to personal and corporate prayer, sharing counsel with one another and waiting on the Holy Spirit to give us direction. We commit ourselves to respect all of God's creation and to value all persons. We believe Jesus calls us to love all people and to seek peace, justice, and
reconciliation in our world. We are called to respond with actions of love to people
in physical, emotional, or spiritual need. We want to encourage each person to share their gifts with the body. As a body and as individuals, we recognize that we are on a journey, in the process of becoming more Christ-like and in continual
need of healing and God's gift of grace.

History

We began meeting in homes in 1991 in response to oil-free Sunday, a protest of
the Iraq war. Many of us attended churches that required a long drive each
Sunday morning and desired a church family closer to home. The Fellowship soon outgrew our homes and we began meeting at Westminster House in 1993.
