Church
Information
Lewis
& Clark Bible Church is an evangelical, fundamental church, located
on the north Oregon coast in Astoria, Oregon. As a member of IFCA International,
we are committed to serving the Lord Jesus Christ through the faithful
teaching of God's word. If you live on the north Oregon coast,
we welcome you to come worship with us on a regular basis; and if you
are vacationing in the area, come visit us!
Our
Past
Lewis
& Clark Bible Church was founded in the late 1940's and began as a
small meeting in a local grange hall. Later it consolidated with another
local church and moved to an old seed barn at the current site, just south
of Astoria, Oregon. In the early 1970's the current facility was constructed
as a church and Christian academy (later the academy moved to downtown
Astoria). Through the years the appearance has changed, but the purpose
has not.
Our Purpose
Lewis
& Clark Bible Church exists to glorify God. Toward this end we endeavor
to proclaim the gospel of Jesus Christ and to faithfully teach the Word
of God. We believe that Jesus Christ alone can meet the needs and satisfy
the longings of the human heart. Jesus said, "I am come that
they might have life and that they might have it abundantly." He came
to give purpose and meaning to life through a personal relationship with
Him. Until Christ returns we believe God's purpose is that we grow together
through instruction in God's Word and reach out to others who do not know
Jesus.

Our
Prayer
It
is our prayer that you have trusted in the Lord Jesus Christ for salvation,
but if not, that you would take this opportunity to evaluate your spiritual
condition in view of eternity. If you do not have a church home, consider
this your personal invitation to worship with us. Our Pastor and church
leaders are available to serve you in bringing comfort, hope, or assistance.
