All Are Welcome Here!

Southminster people are friendly, accepting, devoted, and informal. They come from all kinds of religious backgrounds, and all are seekers. Southminster has been affiliated with the "More Light" Network since 1995 and is a member of the Welcoming Congregations of Portland. Our goal is to include, not exclude.
