About this church
Christchurch in Portland, Maine, gathers for Sunday worship at 10:00 a.m. and hosts an Arabic Bible study at 2:00 p.m. The congregation includes families and single adults from communities across greater Portland and people with Anglo, Latino, Sudanese, and French-speaking African backgrounds. Its invitation is simple: learn to follow Jesus by walking, worshiping, and studying with others.
Founded by Swedish immigrants in 1885, the church belongs to the Evangelical Covenant tradition. It values the Bible as God's Word, grace through faith in Jesus Christ, deepening spiritual life, compassion for a hurting world, and unity within diversity. Mission partnerships include Greater Portland Christian School, Operation Christmas Child, and Science with a Mission. The later Arabic study makes the building a place for cross-cultural learning as well as English-language worship. Visitors can begin with the main Sunday service, review the church's what-to-expect page, and use its mission pages to understand how a historic immigrant congregation serves today's diverse Portland region.
