Welcome to Augustana Lutheran

Please take a look around our website to find out what goes on here and what people from Augustana are doing in our community, both locally and globally.

I invite you to join us this weekend for worship. If you plan to come, our Guest page may be helpful. Worship at Augustana is an experience of grace and hope as we explore the mystery and supremacy of God and embrace the Good News of Jesus Christ through music and communion. Please call 503-288-6174 or email if you have questions.

Voting now completed for Cornerstone II visioning project

Augustana community members voted May 5 in person and those who could not attend have voted via online survey ever since. The Cornerstone committee is now tallying the results. The church council and foundation will review the outcome and return to the congregation this fall to see where we go from here.

Please stay tuned for the exciting future we are shaping for ourselves, our community, and our world. And thank you very much for your input.
