The Groves Church

About this church

The Groves Church in Portland gathers for Sunday worship at 10:30 a.m. at My Voice Music, 8911 SE Stark St, in the Montavilla neighborhood of Southeast Portland. The site describes the congregation as an affirming faith community that pairs faith with music, art, philosophy and theology. Small batch coffee and baked goods, singing and conversation are part of the morning. Sunday messages come from a rotating lineup of speakers, some described as thoughtful, discussion-oriented looks at scripture and others joining by Zoom. Once a month, the gathering becomes Psalms of the People, a potluck Sunday for sharing inspiration, lament and joy, followed by a meal.

Beyond Sundays, Pub Theology meets every other Thursday from 7 to 9 p.m. at rotating locations, recently at Threshold Brewing, with topics chosen by the group. The church uses a Discord server to share event details and keep people connected, and it sends occasional text alerts for events. Those who cannot attend in person can join the Sunday gathering online through Zoom. The calendar includes a summer break from regular services, during which social gatherings, meals, art and music gatherings, volunteering and hiking are planned, so check Discord for updates. Questions can go to the elder team at elder.team@thegroveschurch.com. Locations and schedules occasionally change, including a few Sundays held at a downtown Portland space, so confirm on the website before visiting.
