Roots of Faith, Fruits in Oregon.
Our story began across the ocean, in the lands of the post-Soviet space. We are united by a journey of faith that led our families to the beautiful Willamette Valley.
Through trials and transitions, we have preserved what is most precious: faithfulness to the Bible, a spirit of prayer, and a love for God. We are a church that honors the heritage of our fathers while looking toward the future with hope, raising a new generation of Christians on the solid foundation of Holy Scripture.

What to Expect During Your Visit
Our doors are open to everyone every Sunday at 10:30 AM.
Word and Prayer
The center of our gathering is the preaching of the Gospel. We believe in the authority and inerrancy of the Bible and dedicate significant time to communal prayer. You will hear from our local pastors as well as guest preachers and missionaries.
Worship Style
We praise God together! Our services feature a blend of traditional hymns and contemporary worship songs, accompanied by piano, guitars, and percussion.
Atmosphere
You will find a warm, reverent environment. We value sincerity and a "family-like" feel.
Language
Services are conducted primarily in Russian, but we offer English translation services. Congregational songs are often sung in both languages to unite our multi-generational family.
Dress Code
Our community typically wears a mix of business-casual and formal attire, reflecting our respect for the sanctity of God’s house.
Church Life Beyond Sunday Morning.
We believe the church is not a building, but a people.
Youth Ministry
Our youth group meets in the comfortable homes of our leaders for Bible study, worship, and genuine fellowship. In the summer, you’ll find them at local parks playing volleyball and enjoying the outdoors.
Children
An active Sunday School program helps our little ones learn about Christ’s love through lessons and creative activities.
Events
We host summer camps, Vacation Bible School (VBS), nature outings, retreats, and worship nights. Fellowship is a core value, often continuing after the service over coffee, tea, and shared meals.
Welcome Home!
If you are looking for a place where you will be accepted as you are and helped to grow spiritually—we are waiting for you. Our church is a large family where, over a cup of tea after the service, you can find true friends and spiritual support. We believe in personal salvation, being born again, and the power of prayer. Join us as we seek God and serve Him together. You have a family here in Jefferson!
