Trinity Episcopal Cathedral Portland: An Open & Welcoming Congregtion

Uncommon Warmth. Intellectual Curiosity.

Holy Compassion. Deep Beauty.

We are a progressive, urban Episcopal congregation in downtown Portland that aspires to radical hospitality: this altar is open to everyone, and the cathedral doors swing wide to embrace peoples of many faiths and no faith. We have carefully designed our services to comfort you where you hurt and challenge you where you may have grown complacent. In all that we do, we seek to equip one another in living out our faith, wherever we may be in our journey.

Everyone is welcome - no exceptions.
