Community Service

As we are shaped by our sacred story and sustained by our common table, our desire is that the animation of love moves us into overflowing generosity and care for the wider Portland community. Below you’ll find many opportunities to volunteer with non-profit organizations doing good work in our city. Whether you sign up as an individual or with your home group, partnering with local causes is one way we embody Divine Love!

Good Circumstances

Good Circumstance is a place of belonging for all community members. We provide a non-judgmental space with free internet/computer access, community classes, walk-in peer counseling, and a cozy place to enjoy literature in our non-lending library. We aim to serve the houseless population but our doors and events are open to all.


Ways to help include donating goods for the space, or volunteering to be present in the space to create a welcoming environment.
