Imago Dei Community meets to worship at Franklin High School at 5405 SE Woodward- on the corner of 52nd and Woodward between Division and Powell. For more information visit their website. Their business offices are at 811 East Burnside Suite #223 Portland OR 97214. Imago Dei Community is a breath of fresh air in GOD's Kingdom. Imago Dei means "Image of GOD". In other words, it is a community of GOD Lovers who desire to reflect the heart of GOD in their individual lives. Solid in their belief in GOD's Word they deeply desire to practically live out these truths. The Community at Imago Dei is primarily made up of about 2000+ students, young adults, young married couples with and w/o kids and a few seasoned saints. Imago Dei Community is intensely interested in investing in the community of Portland and in the world. They are constantly trying to assess and meet the needs of the community. The worship and Bible teaching is fresh and heart felt ... there is nothing fake or "canned" here! There is reflective time of communion every week. Pastor Rick McKinley is brilliant, funny and has a heart of gold as he shares practical insights into GOD's Word. Rick has had secular background, so he understands the world, but he eventually ended up at Multnomah School of the Bible and then worked as a Youth Pastor. Later he and a community of believers started a small church in Portland that grew into Imago Dei Community. Imago Dei also is very strong in it's support of "Home Groups" that are spread all over the Portland and Vancouver areas. These Home Groups offer a chance for people to build close friendships, while supporting each other and reaching their local communities. My Bride and I, with our two college age kids, have been going to Imago Dei Community for almost 7 years. It has been a wonderful place to worship and grow. It is truly a beautiful reflection of GOD's Image.
