We are a Queer Affirming, Just Peace faith community.

At Waverly UCC we invite people of all ages, backgrounds, and walks of life to explore their faith in a safe and welcoming environment.  Our church is a place of tolerance, non-judgment, and respect for a wide range of faith perspectives, united in our visions of promoting peace, justice, and compassion in or community.

We are small in size, yet we have an enduring commitment to sustaining a vibrant, progressive Christian community where all are welcome and feel they belong.

Our church building is lovely and well cared for with a beautiful sanctuary that carries the reminder of the presence of many generations.

We cherish our little corner of southeast Portland and celebrate our building partners who offer music, dance, spiritual practice, and eductaional programming for the greater community.

Scenes from Worship Sunday at Camp Adams

Every summer, the Waverly community gathers for a worship service at Camp Adams.  The service features music and prayer under sunny skies with occasional sightings of the Great Blue Heron.

Children and youth from Waverly have been attending summer camp at Camp Adams, located in Molalla, Oregon, for many generations.  Age-appropriate programs provide the traditional overnight camp experience wrapped within the fundamental ideals of the United Church of Christ faith tradition.
